Draw attention from cuts in English energy (7)
I believe the answer is:
eclipse
'draw attention from' is the definition.
'cuts in english energy' is the wordplay.
'cuts' becomes 'clips' (clipping is a kind of cutting).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mcl).
'e'+'e'='ee'
'clips' inserted into 'ee' is 'ECLIPSE'.
(Other definitions for eclipse that I've seen before include "Ennui" , "Blot out" , "Shadowing of sun, etc" , "dark?" , "Deprive of prominence" .)
