Technically speaking, everything is nuclear power. The sun, our star, is a fusion generator.
Wind? winds are caused by weather patterns, which are caused by the sun, either through radiative heating or tidal forces.
Solar? Also the sun.
Hell, nearly every element in existence is the result of fusion in stars. Like coal and natural gas.
Even chemical reactions in batteries are an indirect result of nuclear power.

Start by planting an apple tree.
Yes that's the joke.
Geothermal energy is not nuclear power, tidal energy isn't either.
Considering that everything comes from stars, even planets themselves, yes. Yes it is 🤣
