Based on the study carried out on the Brazilian coast by PhD. Jonas Takeo Carvalho, a prototype was designed, with a buoy operating principle, the characteristics of the coils and the magnet are obtained for the different seasons of the year, which transform wave energy into electrical energy, it can work in any position and Displacement of waves, in areas far from the coast (Offshore). From the simulation of the generator for each station, performance data were obtained, which allowed establishing the definitive parameters for maximum efficiency in energy transformation.
