"Create energy" in this context means "Create usable energy through an energy conversion process." As I stated above. So yes, you are correct, if you're being uncharitable to the flexibility of the English language.
>And what do you mean that conservation of energy doesn't always hold?
I mean what I said. Conservation of energy is not a law of nature, it's only a local approximation to the Conservation of the value of the Stress-Energy Tensor. Which when manipulated conservatively, can and does result in the creation and destruction of energy.
