This may not be entirely relevant to your question, but I think it warrants being said. To my understanding, this discovery is significant because it provides evidence for so called 'primordial' gravity waves, caused by inflation in the early universe. We already have some evidence for gravity waves in general, as we have detected them in the orbital decay of some pulsars. So, I would say that we could not harness these types of waves, if only because of the nature of their origin.
