All stars generate energy on a scale that is nigh-unimaginable in Earthly terms. For example, the total energy used by people in a year is about 5x1020 J. The Sun outputs about that much energy in a millionth of a second. Even the coolest brown dwarfs emit about that much energy every second. So realize that we're talking on a completely other scale here.
That said, the most energetic stars are the hypergiants.

How does nuclear fusion power the sun for 10 billion years?
First, the Sun is pretty big, and there is a LOT of hydrogen. Second, nuclear fusion generates a WHOLE lot of energy.
Which type of radiation produces a wave and a lot of energy?
Gamma radiation is a type of nuclear radiation made of high energy waves.
What type of energy does active transport require?
Yes, energy is needed for active transport, while energy is not needed to be inputted for passive forms of transport.
Because it requires energy input what type of reaction is photosynthesis-?
Carbon dioxide is the reaction pf photosynthesis. This takes a lot of energy.
Is energy released more slowly in anaerobic respiration than aerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that occurs when there is no enough oxygen in the respiratory cells. It is considered to be less efficient since it produces less energy as compared to aerobic respiration.
Does a red dwarf generate a lot of energy?
It depends on what you consider to be a lot of energy. A red dwarf generates far less energy than other classes of star, but still far more than anything on Earth.
Why is a lake a microclimate?
A large lake is generally warm and has a lot of moisture, we find that it generates this very big convective potential energy, which generates a lot of cloudness and this unique nature of weather characterized by heavy thunderstorms.
Are energy star refrigerators really energy efficient?
Energy star refrigerators are designed to save a lot of energy. In the long run, they will save you a lot of money. Make sure you find one that is suitable for your home.
Where does the star get its energy from?
Usually it's from nuclear fusion. At some stages in a star's life it can get a lot of energy from gravitational collapse.
What type of energy does the ocean have a lot of?
Thermal energy.
Is it possible for all the energy stored in a piece of coal to turn into usable energy?
Yes. That's what a lot of electrical energy is made of. Coal is burned in to a gas which turns turbine. That then generates usable energy
What is an example of an energy conversion that produces an unwanted form of energy?
One example is an incandescent light bulb. We normally use it for light, but it also generates a lot of heat.
How does nuclear fusion power the sun for 10 billion years?
First, the Sun is pretty big, and there is a LOT of hydrogen. Second, nuclear fusion generates a WHOLE lot of energy.
Are honeywell generators energy star approved?
Honeywell generators are not energy star approved. This is because a generator is usually a source of backup power, or sole power if in a very rural area. They use a lot of energy and therefore are not energy star approved.
WHat energy efficients appliances should I get?
A lot of Kenmore appliances are energy efficient. Anything with the Energy Star on it is a good idea. They take up less energy, and save you money. Sears carries almost every Energy Star model.
What type of energy do atoms and molecules contain?
Nuclear. Hence Nuclear bombs. Which shows they contain a LOT of energy. A LOT.
Which type of radiation produces a wave and a lot of energy?
Gamma radiation is a type of nuclear radiation made of high energy waves.
