Consider a leyden jar. This is a simple capacitor usually made out of a metal core placed inside a jar. Applying static electricity to the jar causes a charge potential to build up between the iron core and glass jar. The air gap separating these 2 electrodes prevents discharge.
This is a simplified way of looking at the Earth, where discharges are lightning.
It should become clear at this point that we can harness the power of the charge gradient between the positively charged Earth and the negatively charged solar wind. This is the fundamental question people like Nikola Tesla spent their lives addressing. The issue Tesla faced is that he understood an electric charge potential existed but he did not yet understand the dynamics of solar wind. Today we are no longer inhibited by this.
So we arrive at a problem;
>How do we produce conditions where electricity can flow freely from the ionosphere to the ground?
Tesla had several different ideas to do this. Early on he experimented with balloons tethered by long cables. The cable would be painted with a radioactive material, causing air ionization along its length. This would cause lowered electrical resistance and allow discharges to the ground. This approach has limited efficacy.
The ideal method Tesla envisioned (but would not be able to deploy in his life) was a particle stream directed into the sky that would ionize a column of air up to high altitude.
Modern technology has revealed other more efficient methods that are likely the purpose of many progenitor designs. Perhaps the most appealing of these is a simple microwave beam.
Hydrogen gas can be energized and subjected to harmonic resonance to produce a directional microwave beam.
Hydrogen gas is easy to produce and is a common byproduct of chemical processes commonly used in the ancient world including electroplating and niter/natron production.
