No.
The idea of optic fibers is to transfer light as in pulses of information.
We use optic fibers during surgery too, and these fibers can carry high energy beams.
Thought of mind:
It is possible to convert electricity into light, transmit it through the cable and then use a solar-panel at other end to convert back to electricity again.
The loss would most likely be great. The energy would need to be "packed" together in a tiny lazer beam. This beam would possibly burn through your Solar-panel at the other end.

Are HCS optical fibers smaller than glass optical fibers?
false!

1856
What has the author Hiroshi Murata written?
Hiroshi Murata has written: 'Handbook of optical fibers and cables' -- subject(s): Optical fibers, Handbooks, manuals
Can electricity be transmitted through optical fibers?
No. Light is transmitted through optical fibers.
What technologies are optical fibers used with?
Optical fibers are flexible transparent fibers made of glass or plastic and transmits light between its two ends. They are mainly used in the fields of applied science and engineering.
How do tools that implement optical fibers improve medical care?
Tools with optical fibers improve medical care by allowing physicians to see inaccessible places
How light can be used for communication?
using optical fibers....
What is the maximum voltage and current optical fiber can take?
Optical fibers transmit light, not electrical energy.
Is optical fiber hollow or not?
Yhere are varirties of Optical fibers with different sizes and characterstics but all of them are solids.
What are the alternatives to optical fibers?
Copper wires and satellite transmission.
