Claim 8:
9. A method for harnessing kinetic energy of ocean to generate electricity, the method comprises:
providing a system comprising:
a dock made from a buoyant material, the dock has a plurality of floats, each of the of the plurality of floats has a central aperture, the each of the the plurality of floats comprises one or more permanent magnets or a conductive coil; and
a plurality of upstanding pillars, wherein each of the pillar of the plurality of upstanding pillars comprises one or more permanent magnets or a conductive coil,
wherein the each of the plurality of floats receives one of the pillars of the plurality of upstanding pillars,
the method further comprises;
moving the dock up and down relative to the plurality of the upstanding pillars by kinetic energy of the ocean,
wherein either of the plurality of floats and respective upstanding pillar has the one or more permanent magnets while other one of the plurality of floats or upstanding pillars has the conductive coil, and
generating electricity by the up and down moving of the dock relative to the plurality of upstanding pillars.
