At present, there is are functions to calculate kinetic energy and potential energy of a rigid body in sympy/physics/mechanics/rigidbody.py but no function to return the total energy of the rigid body. I propose the following PR. Please let me know your views about it.

What is the difference between potential energy @Property function and potentiat energy setter function?

It is decided that we don't need a function to return total energy. It is easy for a user to compute the total energy using the existing API by adding the potential and kinetic energy themselves.
