A housing is located in a body of water such as an ocean, or a lake, or the like, which is subject to waves. One form of the generator includes chambers fixed within the housing and another form includes floating chambers. One form of the generator uses an open cycle wherein water from the body of water is used to drive the turbine, and another form has liquid interchange between a pair of reservoirs located within the housing. | |
