Gas power plant --> transmission --> charge electric car --> move electric car is significantly more efficient than the car burning any type of fuel. That is not counting any regenerative power gains under braking which are standard in consumer electric vehicles.
Also I assume you are trying to intimate a nuclear power station, in which case perhaps you want to look at the Hinkley Point power station which is a nuclear plant currently under construction.
