Yes, in IIT Roorkee rooms are somewhat allotted based on JEE AIR. One of my friends who studied there told me her neighbors shared the first 2 or 3 digits of rank. However, there is no partiality and only top rankers aren’t allotted the best rooms. The layout and size of rooms in most hostels are similar with minor differences.
The freshers are allotted the Rajendra Bhavan which has 3 blocks. The opening rankers might be given a slight advantage here. Most branch mates are neighbors unless you are an opening rank of the branch, you will be allotted the block where other rank openers reside.

As far as Energy Studies are concerned, the career prospects from campus are bleak with only 1-2 students getting placed from the entire branch. This branch is suited for those who are preparing for IES IAS. This is because the workload is considerably less in comparison to other branches sparing you enough time to prepare.

As far as Control System Engineering is concerned, you can find more job opportunities in the field for energy engineers than for a control system engineer.
For either branch, the option of teaching as a job opportunity is always open and can be considered.
