You can split exercises but ideeally not sets.

If it's because of time no problem, but you mentioned energy. Find the root of the problem. Is it diet? sleep? stress?

>i don't have the energy to do three sets of 15

this doesn't sound good, OP

what is the exercise you're talking about?

You're either a lazy piece of shit or you have a medical condition. My money is on #1.

I had the same issue, I started taking creatine and a pre-workout, and that seems to have taken care of it. Now I can stay in the gym for 2 hours.

From a strength standpoint it doesn't matter. You can perform one set in the morning, one at lunch, one at night. You'll get the same strength gaining benefits as if you performed them in close order. If you have other goals, such as hypertrophy or work capacity, you won't see the benefits of splitting it up through the day.
