a Polysachride is normally the used material in bio-systems for storage (sugars and starches as well as fats).

 

what particular bio-system are you considering? <plant/animal>

And the reason why fats store more energy is because they contain relatively little water (when compared with biomolecules like carbohydrates and protein). The lack of water in the molecule means they can carry more energy per molecules that any other kind of compound found in either plants or animals.
