The correct answer is: forces

"We’ll be joining forces with an Italian company to develop the new product."

to join forces = sich zusammenschliessen

If you join forces with someone, you start to work together to achieve a shared goal.

While you can't "join energies" with someone, you can, however, throw or put your own energies into something:

"Peter threw his energies into his work as a doctor"

"Until the new project starts, I'm just sitting around ________ my thumbs."
