Abstract

The present invention relates to technologies or applications for the mitigation or adaptation to climate change, specifically to the generation of energy through renewable energy sources. In particular, the present invention provides a system for the continuous generation of renewable energy by harnessing ocean waves characterized in that it comprises: a first floating element positioned on the waves and operatively connected to a vertical assembly; a swing arm positioned on a fixed base and operatively connected at one end to said vertical assembly, and at the opposite end to a pair of pneumatic cylinders, wherein the movement of said swing arm alternately actuates each of the pneumatic cylinders comprising said pair of pneumatic cylinders; an air storage tank operatively connected to said pair of pneumatic cylinders; a turbine which is fed from said air storage tank, and which is operatively connected through its shaft to an electrical generator; an electrical substation operatively connected to said electrical generator, wherein said electrical substation is configured to store, manage and distribute the energy produced in said electrical generator; and a control system operatively connected to: said pair of pneumatic cylinders, said air storage tank, said turbine, said electrical generator, and said electrical substation; wherein said control system is configured to monitor and control each of the aforementioned.
