Sun Generates Energy in terms of Light and Heat. It is the Energy radiated in Space. The Kinetic Energy of Sun is felt due to its Gravitational Field & as Subhankar had explained, there is no other source to impart Energy into the Sun, make it gain Potential Energy and then exert the same into atmosphere.
In case of a battery, the electrons formed due to chemical combination are at higher potential at cathode and thus find a path to return to a lower stable state, thus forming a potential difference between Cathode and Anode.

Sun has both because it has stored energy in the core but it is in motion as well and has a moving burning surface.

Potential energy is the energy stored in a body or in a system due to its position in a force field or due to its configuration.
Potential energy exists when a force acts upon an object that tends to restore it to a lower energy configuration i.e. when we apply energy to any system it stores the energy as Potential Energy and it wants to release these energies to come to the lower energy level. Eg- If a string is stressed then it stores the energy as PE and releases it by compression and get back to lower Energy level.
Energy is stored in battery as PE but neither in Sun nor in any other option.

The energy which can be stored is called "Potential Energy". Hence Battery is the source of potential energy.
