A nuclear power station big enough to supply a city of a million people consumes just 3 kg of uranium a day, so it is by far the most concentrated source of energy used by man.
A tiny push caused by neutrons divide the Uranium nucleus. And when a nucleus splits, it releases huge amounts of energy, in a process called 'nuclear fission'. During this process, at least two extra neutrons are produced, which fly off and cause further fission–so that once the process has started it can continue indefinitely.
