abstract : A system for utilizing the energy of waves in the ocean, comprising a wall having a plurality of compartments separated by vertical and horizontal partitions. The water of a wave covers the entrance of a compartment and then enters the compartment, and the wave advance forces the air in that compartment through a conduit, past a non-return valve and into a storage tank, from which the compressed air may then be supplied to a turbine, or the like. The partitions between compartments assure that while the entrance to one compartment may be covered with water, whereby the air therein is forced to the storage tank, the air does not escape through other compartments which are not then covered.
