Answer
The change in energy for light is demonstrated by a change in its frequency.
Work Step by Step
The energy of a photon is given by E = hf, where h is Planck's constant.
If the energy of light is lowered, as in traveling upward in a gravitational field, its frequency is lowered (the light is said to be red-shifted).
On the other hand, if the light's energy is increased, as in falling downward in a gravitational field, the frequency is raised (the light is blue-shifted).
