[Fallout 4] How can a fusion core power a building for hundreds of years, but it can only power a suit of power armor for a couple of hours?

Are there any actual buildings that are powered by fusion cores? In the game, if you take a core out of one of those generators, the lights in the building dont turn off. One nearby will flicker but the rest of the building remains powered. It could be a back up generator of sorts. In which case it would go unused barring damage/loss of the buildings main power source.
