Yes, Ms. Valkyrie's Semblance lets her produce, as well as channel, electrical energy straight to her muscles! This allows her to jump explosively into the air, wield her mighty hammer, or in this case, absorb Nolan's attacks and send the young man flying! He says she can produce electrical energy. Also, it isn't said that the electrical energy isn't emitted when she attacks only that it is channeled into her. When she is shown attacking we consistently see electricty coming out, so it certainly seems that is part of it. There is nothing in the animation to suggest the electricity is simply absorbed and stops being electricity afterwards, but instead all signs are that it remains electrical energy. note what he is actually saying, produce/channel: straight to her muscles. if he meant outright produce electrical output, at least one of his multiple examples would show it, she doesn't shoot lightning, she weilds a hammer, she jumps, she sends that fool flying... nowhere does he say she shoots lightning or jumpstarts a car.
