Why can’t we still realize Nikola Tesla’s dreamed of wireless electricity in the middle of the continents?

Today, Tesla’s dream is enough to question all of us: Tesla was such a predictive one?

Or do we try to realize what Tesla imagines today? Moreover, wireless electricity is one of them!

Nikola Tesla pursued an idea that would radically change the way humanity reached power.

This idea involved the spread of electricity to the entire planet through the atmosphere itself without imprisoning the wires. Although this may seem impossible in his time, today, the phone in our pocket is chargeable on a table or the power storage of electric cars while the parking in the form of a power, Tesla’s dream is no longer a “laboratory tale”?

If so, why still uses sockets on our walls and a cable even in wireless charging…

Tesla thought of using the ionosphere layer as a giant conductor to transmit electricity with “invisible cables”.

For that period, this idea was seen as a dream in a world that has just discovered radio waves. One of Tesla’s largest projects was the Wardenclyffe Tower. This tower was the center of the vision of the global wireless power network. Compared to this, Tesla tried to transmit electricity wirelessly by using resonant inductive binding elements.

Compared to Tesla, this system would be able to walk around in homes, streets and around the world without needing the cable of electricity. But this could not go beyond just one dream.

Although his ideas reached today, this idea was a vision far beyond his era.

In fact, we are facing many innovations such as electric vehicles and wireless contact. Naturally, “Why not wireless electricity?” Not to ask the question is not even work. But these “wireless” technologies we are talking about face short range problems.

When using a wireless charging, we still stay connected to a device and cable. Or the battery of the electric vehicle is exhausted after some point and needs to be charged with a cable again. Even today, we cannot know exactly from a wireless electricity.

Compared to Tesla, when an electric current passes through a wire coil, a magnetic field is formed around.

If an other coil is placed in this area, the electric current is induced in it, and that famous dream of Tesla will occur without needing the cable. Now the power can be transferred to each other in this form.

So why can’t we still use wireless electricity?

Wireless electricity, as in Tesla’s era, is still seen in a very powerful and pale vision today. Because our existing technologies are still influenced in short intervals. Tesla’s dream is a transmission in the middle of the continents.

A cost -effective cost is required to change the existing infrastructure.

Since every place of the world is integrated into cable electricity, adapting to a wireless system means a very challenging and costly process in global sense. Moreover, we should not behind the security and human health here. Indeed, the electromagnetic field has negative effects on human health, as it is known.

Of course, this process does not mean that Tesla’s wireless electric dream will only be a “dream”. Experts continue to investigate whether Tesla’s dream can be a national vision while performing the necessary work on this issue.
