'losing the first friendly one can generate a lot of energy from that' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'victory and draw for first fifteen' is the wordplay.
'victory' becomes 'win' (a win is a victory).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'first' suggests taking the first letters.
'fifteen' becomes 'arm' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
The initial letters of 'draw for' is 'df'.
'win'+'df'+'arm'='WIND FARM'

'after' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
