How much electricity does plutonium possess?

Your question is slightly off. You could ask how much energy plutonium has, since plutonium can be used as a fuel to run a nuclear power plant and to generate electricity (although the usual use of plutonium is to make atomic bombs - the normal fuel in nuclear power plants us uranium, not plutonium) but the element itself contains potential nuclear energy, not electricity. Nuclear energy can be converted into electricity. I will also note that it is can't be converted directly into electricity. It can be converted into heat, and the heat can be used to boil water to run a steam turbine which then generates electricity. In terms of usable energy content, I am not going to give you an exact equivalence, but it is possible to create something like a 50 kiloton explosion (one equal to the explosive force of 50,000 tons of dynamite) with about 30 pounds of plutonium. So it contains a lot of energy.
