But it is technically possible to move real energy through the quantum vacuum without it passing through intervening space. Quantum energy teleportation may be as close as we get to transporter beams. But how close is that?

This feels like a very sci fi version of single line power networks, where neutral is ground on both sides and it just works itself out
