Nuclear energy appears as heat, and it is not practicable to store this heat, it has to be used to produce electricity. You could regard the new nuclear fuel as a store, the nuclear energy is there, just waiting to be released, and it would be practicable to stockpile fuel to be used if supplies of uranium were interrupted for some reason. I am not sure how much fuel is in fact stockpiled by the power companies that own power plants, but it would be possible for the federal government to pay to store more, if they wanted to.

What energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom?
This is the nuclear energy.
How is electrical and nuclear energy related?
Electrical energy is the energy generally stored in electrons and their movement. Nuclear energy is the energy stored with an atom. Electrons are a fundamental part of most atoms, thus nuclear energy also contains direct electrical energy.
The energy stored in the bonds of molecules?
Chemical Energy
What is nuclear energy if it is not renewable and not a fossil fuel?
It is energy stored by ancient supernovas in heavy nuclei like Uranium, when the stars exploded.It is also energy stored by the Big Bang in light nuclei like Hydrogen.This energy is stored in the Strong Nuclear Force as excess Nuclear Binding Energy.
Can nuclear energy be stored in a arc reactor?
no
