If you're considering nuclear energy, then nuclear power is generated by nuclear fission, generally with radioactive bombardment. Basically, atoms are split into smaller components and release energy, and we use that to generate steam for electric power.

∙ 13y agoNuclear power is made from the release of binding energy in the atom, either by fission (the current, practical way) or by fusion (the way of the Sun, but not yet established as a viable option for us).
