The shorter the wavelength, the more energy. In terms of visible light, this means that violet light has the most energy. Of course, there are invisible frequencies that have even more energy. -------------------------------- Not all waves carries electromagnetic energy, what you call "light energy". Sound propagates in materials like a wave and in general relativity even gravitational wave exists.. If we limit to electromagnetic waves, the quantum field theory tells us that the power P (energy per second) carried by an electromagnetic wave is equal to P=n h f where n is the number of photons carried by the wave per second, h is the Plank constant (a universal constant appearing in all quantum theories) and f the wave frequency. The term Eq=h f is also the energy quantum of the wave, that is the energy of one photons. Thus we have essentially two ways to increase the wave power: either increasing the number of photons travelling through the wave front per second or increase the frequency f, that is increasing the energy of one photon. The wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency, thus higher the frequency lower the wavelength. If we compare waves carrying the same photons flux (number of photons per second) the more energetic wave (the wave carrying more energy per second) is the wave having higher frequency. This is why high frequency waves like gamma rays conveys a lot of energy even if they have a small number of photons. The different energy of the single photon has also an important impact on how the wave interact with matter.
One way is using wave energy and another is tidal energy. however wave energy is pretty new and tidal energy works better in rivers :)
Radiation, convection and conduction
The smallest unit of sound wave energy is the phonon. The phonon and the photon and the electron can in some ways all behave like a small particle.
move more. move things more.

Wave action and tidal currents are being utilized today to produce electrical energy.
move more. move things more.
There are many ways that the energy can be release in ATP. Break down in the cell can release this energy.
Use renewable energy, like:solar powerwind powerwater power (hydro, wave and tide)
Light emits energy in discrete units called photons. Light has wave properties.
Yes, in may ways. As the latent heat of evaporation. As heat (as a result of its thermal capacity) As potential energy as with a dam As kinetic energy as with a tide / wave
by pressing the spring down witch coils the spring.
