More than 500VDC at 2000A.

A bit of searching says that would require 4 of ~1" diameter stranded copper wires, well actually 8 as there's + & - conductors.

That sounds a bit cumbersome.

I'm wondering what kind of sound a 20kW wireless charger would make.

Megacharger territory, over 1 MW.
Over 1341 HP.
More than 500VDC at 2000A.

Any folks with utility power experience care to comment on how feasible that is?

The Data center I work in has an average daily load of 750 KW and it's emergency generators(Mirrless Blackstones, which are old btw) run 480 3 phase, 60hz @900 rpm. They put out 1 MW maximum. The Data center I used to work in had 3612 Cats rated at 2.6 MW, 4160 VAC @ 900 rpm each at max load.  2K amps @480 VAC 60hz would require a 1.3 MW input, The arc flash rating alone would make this kinda unfeasible in my thoughts.
