Because it is not an energy but superposition of electric fields from two charges. Electric field is vector quantity.
Nice lecture, good explanation of curl operator, its physical meaning and usufulness in the analysis of the non conservative fields

I thought energy was a scalar, so why did you draw the vector symbol on them at video time of 2:30?
