Yup. Lots of new toys they have developed but can't make use of. The current proposals for new power systems for infantry seem mostly based around universally compatible lithium ion battery packs and photovoltaic cells to recharge them in the field but that creates the issue of not being able to recharge during poor weather or nighttime. Being able to put in a request to have your photovoltaic cells energized by an orbital laser would fix that reliability issue.

There are also the winged and airship drones they developed that are supposed to stay above the battlefield indefinitely using solar panels. Being able to energize their photovoltaic panels during night or bad weather might make them more viable.

Although they do seem serious about the plans to beam power to forward operating bases that currently need constant deliveries from vulnerable fuel trucks to refill their generators. Being able to eliminate the fuel powered generators and instead give them photovoltaic panels that can be energized rain or shine, day or night— would eliminate a supply line vulnerability. The proposed Abrams main battletank replacement is hybrid electric for the same reason, on top of silent mode it means less fuel trucks needed and the ability to not use any fuel when idling or making maneuvers of only a few miles.
