Oscillating Wave Surge Converter

Pendulum that oscillates as waves pass by.

Oscillating wave surge converters typically have one end fixed to a substructure or the seabed while the other end is free to move. Energy is collected from the relative motion of the body, driven by the horizontal motion of waves (surge), to the fixed point. Oscillating wave surge converters often come in the form of floats, flaps, or membranes. Rotary motion at a hinge may drive a generator to produce electricity, or the moving body may be used to pressurize a fluid.
