1GW of Free Electricity From the Ocean

Ho-hum. Hey Austin how about something more like this here than inefficient solar panels that take more energy to make than they produce?

The device sits on a coastal seabed and moves with waves. It drives a piston that forces water up to an onshore station to turn a conventional generator. No heating, no polluting, just reuse of an infinitely self-renewing resource.

Also a good way to save a beach, it would seem to me.

Wow.
