The simple sugars are most easily stored as starches, and the breaking down of these starches is what releases the energy the plant needs to survive.

Actually, it is necessary to store the sugars in some insoluble forms, you know a soluble form of sugar cannot be stored in cells since it imbalances the osmoticum of cells. Starch is insoluble and more stable, so plants prefers to store the sugars in the form of starch converts to sucrose and other soluble sugars whenver needed.
