No obvious power connection.
Are they getting power inducted off the primary?  Solar?

Around here all the lines are buried in trees, so I don't see this happening near me anytime soon.

Is it practical?
Can it be FCC approved?
I would say no to both.

Here's a couple quick videos showing some of the basics.

    I just posted on TBW asking for some WISP audience-appropriate
    information on what they're doing.

    "The data is sent directly along the power line itself. The wire
    acts as a waveguide that channels the signal and improves the
    transmission quality compared to traveling through plain old air,
    Evans said."

    "In fact, AT&T discovered the physical basis for AirGig
    accidentally when engineers noticed that data sent wirelessly
    behaved differently when it happened to be traveling in the same
    direction as a power line, Evans said.

    Companies have tried sending data along power lines before, using
    them just as wires, but that technology petered out at just tens
    of kilobits per second, Evans said. AirGig is another beast
    altogether."

    Sounds like it to me, but there are some interesting ideas for
    BPL-ish communication.
