No, there isn't any WiFi involved. Calls are being routed as VOIP, but Sky, like other ISPs, still charge for them, either as pence per minute or from a bundled allowance.
'WiFi calling' is a different concept involving mobile phones routing the initial part of their connection over local wireless rather than cellular signal.
