Abstract: A system and method for harnessing power associated with ocean waves and converting that power into electricity. The apparatus houses a vertically oriented central shaft, a pendulum, a generator, and other components that operate to optimize power output of the generator. Various operating parameters may be initially set and later changed to effectuate a restoring force applied to the apparatus against wave motion so that generator output is maximized. The optimum restoring force may vary according to changing environmental conditions. A library of environmental data and associated parameter values, tuning responses, and the like is stored at a central location or local to the apparatus.
