They're called Electrostatic Voltmeters, Harry.
OTOH. If you tie a high gain antenna with a series diode
to the positive plate (anode) and earth ground the
cathode, you can use all of that "Free Energy" from
Cell Phones, AM-FM-TV Broadcast, GPS, Power Line Noise, etc. to
electrolyze
water for you. :-)
Quite right Fred! I am told that some people living close to the Eiffel
tower (which bears powerful TV emitters) heat their flats this way.

One might do a lot better on Electrolysis Over-Unity by tying
the negative (cathode) to Earth Ground as opposed to "floating"
it using a battery supply only.
