Since both resistance is same so current in $\mathrm{R}$ would be $\mathrm{I}.$ So current at $\mathrm{x}$ would be $21$. The whole current will pass through $\mathrm{R}$ (in steady state) so potential difference across $\mathrm{xy}$ would be

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{xy}}=(2 \mathrm{I})(\mathrm{R})$

so energy stored $=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{C}\left(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{xy}}\right)^{2}$

$\boxed{{\text{U}} = \frac{1}{2}{\text{C}} \times 4{{\text{I}}^2}{{\text{R}}^2} = 2{\text{C}}{{\text{I}}^2}{{\text{R}}^2}}$
