To transmit or send useable electrical power from one point to another in air or space without conductors is not practical and is very inefficient.

If I want to send say,50 watts of electrical power from my house to my garden to light up a bulb without wires;for the energy to leave/radiate from my house I will have to convert the 50W to ultra high frequency electro-magnetic wave or short wave length lightwave or lasser beam or electro static charges (like lightning) and focus it to a receiving arrangement (forget about the safety aspect) and convert it back to useable electrical power,50W for the bulb.In this process I will have to waste more than hundreds of KW to make it happen.So, it is definitely not a vaible obtion now.

Converting coal's thermal energy to steam energy with a simple steam boiler, the efficiency is about 12%.From steam to turbine and alternator and transmission (6% for voltage step up and down plus line losses) there are more losses( I do not know the typical efficiecies such mechines).From sun light to electricity is about 16-17%.It is at such great expence for us to receive every watt of electrical energy that we should not spend it wastefully.

However I think it is somewhat practical to have a small area such as a table/work bench or factory floor embedded with induction coils that transfer electrical energy through small air gaps to induction coils under your laptop computers,handphones,LED table lights,radio and other small power devices.How about induction coils in the mattress to charge up the batteries of heart pacemaker inside the patiens?Take it further and apply it on Erectile dyfunction cases ( 50 Hz is definitely too fast!).

Have fun and regards,

Khor.
