Best Answer

A battery stores energy through the potential difference between the anode and cathode of the battery. When there is no circuit the potential power is stored somewhat indefinitely (although it can degrade over time). Once a circuit is made, an electrolytic cell is created releasing energy as the chemical reaction occurs.

Batteries store chemical potential energy. When the circuit is completed the chemical reaction occurs and electrons can travel in the external circuit.
