How will our clan "work together to take down the boss" ??

My guess, strengthened by the second concept artwork showing a health bar, is the raid boss has a high communal HP, and each clan member contributes damage towards that total. As long as we get participation rewards, in addition to a jackpot if the clan manages to defeat the boss each week/time-period, it should be simple enough. Could be an interesting challenge to design teams focused on dealing damage, instead of aiming for quick clears. Looking forward to it!

That makes sense. I believe that is similar to how Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes works.

Yep, it would be completely out of character to provide any help or insight.

this new energy better be easy to get or boss fights will fail hard

As long as it doesn't depend on actually being online at the same time as other people in your clan - I guess that would limit us slightly to clan with people in the same time zone or people with a similar work/life balance.

THIS!!!! This is my biggest concern with the whole Clan concept. We NEED to be able to each individually contribute to the end goal on our own time schedule. This ABSOLUTELY must be at the core of the concept of clan competition. If you expect to get 30, or even 10 people from the same clan online at the same time with the capabilities to work together toward a goal for a set amount of time.... you might as well scrap the entire clan concept right now and save everyone the time and aggravation.

Also, getting x number of people online at the same time who don't then experience server connection issues might be an additional logistical challenge...
