    Getting closer? Not really, I think I'll wait for Kala to show us the pudding when it is ready to be eaten.

    AI Overview
    "Yes, several megawatts (MW) of electricity can be transmitted through space, but not in the way a current flows through a wire on Earth. Instead, it's typically done using electromagnetic radiation, like microwaves or lasers, to transfer energy wirelessly."

    I wondered if fibre could be used? I learned mW is milli-watt , and MW is mega watt. I have always used both thinking m/M was short for MEGA. We live and learn.
    I guess " mw and Mw" mean the same as " mW and MW "
    Anyway fibre ....

    "Limitations:
    PoF systems typically deal with relatively low power levels (milliwatts to watts) due to the limitations of laser power and the efficiency of PV converters.

    Example:One
    study achieved 157.8 mW of electrical power delivered over 2400 meters using a 10 W laser and an OM2 multimode fiber.

    Moving MWs of Power:
    Challenges:

    Transmitting megawatts of power over fiber would require extremely high-power lasers, large core fibers to handle the power, and highly efficient PV converters, all of which present significant technical hurdles and cost implications.

    Alternative:

    For applications requiring high power transmission, traditional electrical power cables are generally preferred.

    Research:

    While research continues on high-power fiber lasers and their applications, moving megawatt levels of power over fiber remains a distant prospect.
