Are there any good reads out on energy. Specifically how to set the sub out/ sub in ratios ?

This is old, but I think it is still up to date

That's a great help. I was under the impression that weight played a part in the equation but it's not mentioned.

I won't guarantee this as gospel but Weight has the following effects that I know of vaguely;
It has an effect in blocking/breaking blocks. If, all other things are equal (strength and blocking and all that) then the dot that weighs the most has an advantage in causing a cake / rev cake. Not sure if it effects the actual 'holding of' or 'breaking of' the block... don't think so but even if, it would be a very small effect.
It has an effect on causing fumbles in so much as a heavy dot colliding into the dot with the ball... at speed (more is better)... going in opposite directions (head on collision best... side on collision not so much)... has a better chance of causing a fumble.
That's the only two I can think of for now... I'm sure there's other things... but I don't think it effects stamina.

Weight might impact the amount of energy lost on a play. For example, a 300lb DE running 50 yards might lose more energy than a 200lb CB running 50 yards. I don't know and probably the person who wrote the wiki page doesn't know either. There isn't really anything that a coordinator can do about it though,so I just set the sub in/sub out settings and let the sim take care of the rest.

This would be a great Q&A thing... if there was ever going to be another Q&A.
Perhaps someone could pm DD and ask him? Not sure he'd reply though.

This is probably true, however 300 lb people in GLB run so many fewer yards each play than 200 lb people that it's almost a moot point unless you are building a STer.

As a ST coach of many, many seasons all I can tell you is that weight never seemed to matter in a way that you could actually measure as far as stamina usage goes. The BEST way to see this is either in the very first season or PeeWee leagues... where almost every single dot has the exact same stamina. I'm not saying there is NO impact whatsoever... but simply that any impact is so small you can't measure it.
