When a rubber band is wound up, it is in a state of deformation. According to the concept of potential energy (elastic potential energy in this case), an object that is deformed (like a wound - up rubber band) stores energy. When it is released, it converts that stored elastic potential energy into kinetic energy (for example, if it is used to power a toy plane, the plane moves due to the release of the energy that was previously stored). So, the wound - up rubber band stores energy.
