Yes tesla did work on wireless transmission and yes, there is a company that thinks they've figured out how it can be done.  At least I saw so on TV.  ;)

As for solar power, the best solar cells caputure only a fraction of the available energy and some solar plants refocus the sun to... wait for it... generate steam.  /facepalm

 

Our modern society takes a c---load of energy to run and it's only going to take more in the years ahead.  Yes having power runs with risks, but not having energy for cooking/refrigeration/heating/cooling/internet/tv runs even greater risks.

WARK!
