Energy to Vaporize Lava?

Lava is just molten rock, so it's the vaporization of whatever type of rock is being used.
"The composition of almost all lava of the Earth's crust is dominated by silicate minerals, mostly feldspars, olivine, pyroxenes, amphiboles, micas and quartz."

Not sure if any of them have vaporization data though.

We don't have a vaporizzation value. But if you're looking for results, without guesswork. It's best to use a specific heat change calculator to determaine how much energy it would take for a mass of lava to transition into vapor.
