Is it feasible to use only Kinetic and Missile weapon with Dwarves?

Hi all,

I've just started my 3rd full play-through and I'm role playing a custom created Dwarven race (in fantasy game I really love them, so I thought I give them a try in Stellaris as well).

Since lasers are a bit on the Elvish side of things, I thought I'll try to avoid them and play only with kinetic weapons and missiles/torpedoes. But is it really possible to completely avoid energy weapons (including plasma and neutron launcher)? Or I'm crippling myself way too much. I'm playing tall so I won't do much territory conquering.

Here is my race:
