Nuclear fission has incredibly high energy density compared with all other fuels. Tiny amounts of material produce vast amounts of thermal energy and hence via attached turbines and generators vast amounts of electricity. For example, pound for pound, the nuclear fuel Uranium -235 provides a staggering 16,000 times as much energy per unit weight as coal.
