Best Answer

The terminology for heat is thermal transfer. To transmit electricity over long distances the terminology would be transformation where Transformers step the voltage to a very high value to cut down on line loss. This high voltage is then stepped down at the other end of the transmission line to be used by utility companies to sell to their customers.

Why you cannot transmit electricity by wireless medium?

To say that you cannot transmit electricity wirelessly is completely wrong. You can actually transmit electricity through the air by magnetic field through a mechanism called "inductive coupling" or "resonance coupling" over short distances. Over long distances, you can convert it to microwaves. However, it has not become popular due to various reasons.
