Power is energy that you can put to work, such as the electric current produced from a generator or engine.

These are things that are not comparable. Nuclear power refers to the fuel, just as natural gas, coal, or oil would. Steam refers to how the fuel is used, and the fuel might be natural gas, coal, oil, or nuclear; an alternative to steam would be to use natural gas or oil to power a turbine directly.
