Realistically 25-30A with thick copper wire are doable. 20V is a good ground but even then it could power a TV + couple laptops, perhaps lights too. That would be a solution to have dedicate DC lane in-house but the conversion to low voltage DC must have in-house (office buildings would require tons of copper). Galvanic corrosion might be an issue to a certain degree.

Carrying high voltage DC, comes with its own issues - likely doable though. Many household devices would run perfectly fine on high voltage DC (instead of AC).

Honestly, just use aluminium cables. Those only need proper crimping, which isn't too expensive.

The cost for the cables themselves would be lower than copper AC, even.
