Upgrades unlocked later in the game

Early in the game, you will encounter a room with a large machine in it. Plug into it, and the teleport ability is unlocked.

To teleport you click on your desired location. This requires at least one energy block in the current room to have been activated. Be aware that when you teleport all blocks in the adjacent squares to your starting position will be deactivated - including energy blocks.

I was able to ride the elevator past the currents by not turning the currents on (so everything is still dark), even without the streams the final jump was a little tricky. You've already powered up the room permanently, so you don't have that option... The best I can say is stay to the left edge of the elevator, push left as the elevator takes you up into a stream, and have the cursor lined up to teleport over to the platform on the right as soon as it gets into view.

I just tried this approach myself in this room with all the lights on, and its tricky but not out of line with some of the other dexterity puzzles in this game.
