You're both making it a bit too complicated for yourself.
What you've got to look at is what energy is generated and where does it ends up. Heat is created by increasing the rate of nuclear fission. This is used to heat water and power turbines. The hot water is then dumped into the environment (as steam, hot water......) the heat from this will leave the environment over night into space in the same way as heat from the sun, current power stations or your toaster.
