the sun is powered by fusion, the power plant by fission
The energy source for a nuclear power plant is the fissioning of nuclear fuel, which is normally uranium.
Electrical energy
There are different types of "power plant". Some run on nuclear energy, others don't.
nuclear energy?It should be any way~(=w=)
Thermal energy
a nuclear reactor converts binding energy into heat. a nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
That's like asking what is the difference between a potato and a plant. Nuclear fission is the splitting of atoms to release binding energy. Nuclear is the overall concept that structure and energy of the atom is contained within the nucleus.This answer assumes, by virtue of the category the question was placed in, that the intended topic is nuclear physics, and not biology, to which it could just have as easily been applied.
The source of the thermal energy is obviously completely different, but the steam side, turbo-generator, etc is very similar.
The energy source for a nuclear power plant is the fissioning of nuclear fuel, which is normally uranium.
Nuclear energy is converted to electrical energy in a nuclear power plant.
Nuclear energy is a type of potential energy, which depends on the forces between the nucleons (protons and neutrons). In other words, the energy is stored in the relationship between the particles.

The main difference between the fungi and plant kingdoms is that fungi absorbs energy from other plants
Steam from the heat of the reactor.
