Nuclear fusion, specifically the proton-proton chain, with somewhat less than 2% being the CNO (carbon-nitrogen-oxygen) cycle, takes place in the Sun's core. At a temperature of 13.6 million K, in each p-p reaction, four protons (hydrogen nuclei) are fused together to form two protons and two neutrons (helium nuclei) with two quarks being converted from up to down to facilitate two of the protons becoming neutrons.
There is a loss of residual binding energy when this happens, which is released as gamma rays, other particles such as neutrinos, and energy to raise the temperature of the core.
It is estimated that about 4.26 million metric tons of mass is converted to energy each second, yielding about about 3.846 x 1026 joules per second, or about 9.192 x 1010 megatons of TNT per second in equivalent energy.
Fusion takes place in the core, where the temperature and pressure are the highest.

Fusion takes place in the core of the sun. This is where the immense pressure and temperature allow hydrogen atoms to combine and form helium, releasing energy in the process.
27 MILLION degrees Farenheight way way way hotter than Venus's surface and Earth's CORE!

In the core
The suns core is the innermost portion or the photosphere of the sun. It's the hottest layer and under the highest pressure, enabling nuclear fusion to take place, which produces the energy. The suns core temperature is estimated to be around 13.6 million degrees Kelvin.
