Using fiber optic to carry sunlight from sunlit countries to countries in dark

+0
−0

I wanted to know the usefulness and practicality of carrying sunlight through fiber optic (I know there are commercial products which help getting sunlight from roof to dark corners of homes and there is extensive network of fiber optic around the globe, so it is not completely unheard of.) so that at least the costal areas of countries get sunlight through the night which is transmitted from another country in sunlight and saves energy consumption for, say road lights and other things over the years. For example the costal India can get sunlight transmitted from african countries. Here is the day-night map link for illustration http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/sunearth.html?iso=20160812T1632
