Instead of resting on power lines, birds will be roasted by them.

Rat Party Headquarters has vowed to outlaw coal fired plants,gas fired plants,oil fired plants and nuclear plants. Once that's done it's easy to see why there’d be no need for power lines.

I wonder how lssy this method of power transmissn is
To: Red Badger
So, at 160 feet between transmission points the present “unsightly infrastructure” of power poles will remain, just without the wires/cables. That’s what it sounds like.
We have has all kinds of studies of the present types of microwaves, when it comes to the environment, but no major environmental studies of mass transmission of electricity by microwave.
It sounds like an idea that needs a lot more R&D before it is judged practical or not.

I’m not sure the helicopter pilot’s association or the FAA is going to back this idea unless there is some visible warning.

And methinks the power loss per distance unit will be much greater than cables. And, of course, there be increased losses during fog/rain/snow. Sorry, I’m betting this will be a loser.
To: Red Badger
We already have wireless electricity. The hard part is receiving it without going up in a puff of smoke. It has the additional problem that it is often accompanied by hail and tornadoes.

Oh, big deal. Grandpa Munster did it first.

Emrod generates electricity in a tight and focused beam in the non-ionizing Industrial, Scientific, and Medical band of the electromagnetic spectrum—the portion of the radio band that corresponds to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth frequencies.That sounds harmless unless this tightly focused beam is of some mega-intensity that goes way beyond my regular Wi-Fi.

Emrod generates electricity in a tight and focused beam . . . So, if this is pointed at a person, . . .
Will it be like a Star Trek Phaser?

in Florida, unsightly poles and lines was solved by placing them below ground in most areas.
no fried birds and weathers hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, and floods very well.
