I would say, heat engine on earth would waste the most energy since it is always limited by thermodynamic efficiency to have some loss. In general, lower the temperature difference will resulted to lower the efficiency, a simple steam engine for a train would be of lower efficiency than a internal combustion engine and lower than complex high pressure steam turbine and is probably the lowest engine efficiency in commercial scale.
