Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic wave.If you mean the microwave OVEN, the answer is none - no energy is stored. Any energy it uses is provided when it is needed, from the electrical outlet.
In a klystron tube.
The energy waves produced in a microwave oven take the form of electromagnetic radiation at about 2,450 MHz, which is in the microwave range.
A microwave is simply an instrument for producing microwaves ( these are similar to that of infra-red and radio waves), these microwaves that are produced in the microwave itself has the same wavelength of water and allows water molecules to vibrate. The increase in energy of these water molecules (the kinetic energy) can then be transfered (as energy is never created or destroyed) into heat energy. Therefore heating up the food/drink or what ever you are placing in the microwave, this is essentially how it works.
The microwave energy in a microwave oven is of a much lower frequency than light, but light is electromagnetic energy like the microwave radiation is.
The microwave undergoes a variety of energy transformations when you are heating food. Starting from electrical energy (obtained via the mains power point/wall socket), the energy is transformed into microwave/thermal radiation (electromagnetic radiation/energy). These 'microwaves' react with the water particles in the food and cause them to vibrate. The friction produced by these vibrations produces heat and ultimately cooks/heats up your food. However, there is some energy that is transformed into light (the light you see when the microwave is one), sound (that humming noise you hear when it's operating) and kinetic energy (the rotating disk inside the microwave). Energy is transformed from electrical to heat, sound and light (if the microwave has a light). Energy is transferred to the food via the process of convection.

The type of energy conversion for a microwave is the transformation of electrical energy into light energy. This device works by focusing microwave light on the food inside of it.
Into microwave electromagnetic radiation.

Both microwave radio transmitters and microwave ovens generate and pour out radiant energy.
A microwave oven uses electrical energy (which is electromagnetic energy) from the mains, and it generates microwave energy (which is also electromagnetic energy) to heat/cook food items.
