There are many contributing factors which only you will be able to isolate.

Do I need to wear my watch at night?

While you may choose to do so, you do not need to wear your watch at night to maintain accurate readings.  Your Apple Watch will determine the necessary data all through the day, including in the morning. When that data is available, your Energy Level will be determined.
