how would you transfer the energy? you can't just beam it somewhere without someone maybe running into the beam and incinerating themselves.

Nah, you just have a diffuse beam directed at a massive collector, so that the energy directed at, say, 1m/sq is low, but across the whole collector it's in the gigawatt range or whatever.
