The notion of fidelity in quantum information science has been recently applied to analyze quantum phase transitions from the viewpoint of the ground-state (GS) overlap for various many-body systems. In this work, we unveil the intrinsic relation between the GS fidelity and the derivatives of GS energy and find that they play an equivalent role in identifying the quantum phase transition. The general connection between the two approaches enables us to understand the different singularity and scaling behaviors of fidelity exhibited in various systems on general grounds. Our general conclusions are illustrated via several quantum spin models which exhibit different kinds of quantum phase transitions.
