Best Answer

Nuclear fusion. The sun has such a huge mass and high internal pressure as well as incredible heat, it fuses atoms of gas together in it's core which releases massive amounts of energy. The typical fuel used in the sun is "heavy hydrogen" which is fused together to produce Helium and water.
