ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a syphon wave generator for generating electric power from a wave-driven water body in a fast, easy, inexpensive and efficient manner such that the unit has few moving part, is very inexpensive to build and maintain and can withstand storms. The syphon wave generator comprises: a horizontal pipe with one or more pipes at each end extending down below the water surface, a turbine and generator mounted inside the horizontal pipe and a means for filling the unit with water. The waves passing under the unit cause different water levels at different pipes creating a siphon. The water siphoning across the horizontal pipe spins the turbine and generator to create electricity.
