Abstract
The present invention is a system and method for providing a regenerative energy system and method for capturing kinetic energy from wave motion or the relative motion of train cars on tracks to generate electricity, wherein the system uses a hydraulic mechanism coupled to a wave motion capture system or train track components to convert vertical movement into rotational motion, wherein this rotational motion is amplified by a gear reduction assembly, driving one or more generators to produce electrical power. The generated electricity can be utilized in real time by electrical motors, stored in batteries or supercapacitors, or supplied directly to the power grid, wherein the invention integrates hydraulic conversion, motion amplification, and efficient energy transformation to create a durable, scalable system for renewable energy production, and wherein it is designed to harness repetitive, continuous movements, making it applicable for sustainable energy in coastal and transportation infrastructures.
