We might need some superconductors to make use of a voltage that low across distances that great. But we have been making progress on higher-temperature superconductors....
Still, don't hold your breath. We have this awesome geothermal temperature gradient, with hot rocks underneath us if we just dig down a few kilometers, occasionally less. Unfortunately, it's only cost effective to use in a rare few places.
