Patent abstract
A method for generating electrical current indirectly from ocean wave action based on the reciprocating surge of the ocean that directly results from the overhead wave action. The method includes (a) positioning an energy transducer below overhead wave action and at a depth and orientation substantially responsive to reciprocating water surges arising from the overhead wave action; and (b) powering the energy transducer by the surges in alternating first and second directions to generate electrical current.
