  • Publication number: 20140239643
    Abstract: A system for generating electrical energy from sea waves comprising a floating body and a gyroscope structure (4) set thereon and comprising: —a first frame (6) mounted so that it can turn with respect to the floating body about a first axis of rotation (E); and —a rotor (8), which is mounted so that it can turn about a second axis of rotation (?), is carried by said first frame, and is substantially orthogonal to said first axis; said system further comprising electric-generator means (14) operatively connected to said first frame for generating electrical energy as a result of rotation of said first frame about said first axis (E). The system comprises actuator means (22, 24, 26; 14, 32, 34) designed to control rotation of said first frame about said first axis, as a function of the angular position of said first frame in such a way that in operation said first frame will perform complete rotations through 360° about said first axis.
