Magbeam to Mars

[nomadguy]

"The proposed Magbeam system will use space stations to generate the plasma and beam it to a spacecraft. The spacecraft generates its own magnetic field, which deflects the plasma beam. Like wind pushing on an umbrella, the deflection of the plasma beam generates a force that propels the spacecraft. Another space station orbiting the destination generates a beam to slow down the spacecraft upon its arrival, and to launch it on the return journey. "

What if we used the beam to move a turbine, or heat a large water tank? etc.
