Not the same thing really this method of power transmission utilities direct line of sight microwave transmission(Point A to point B). Nikola Tesla proposed utilizing our Earths own magnetic field to transmit power essentially to any point on the planet. He even had a modicum of success managing to light a bank of 200 light bulbs at a distance of 26 miles.
