ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A wave and tide actuated hydraulic electrical generating apparatus including a flotation chamber floatingly supported in a water containing basin area connected to a fluctuating water source, such as the tide and wave level of an ocean, the flotation chamber rising and falling with the changes in elevation of the water in the basin, such as caused by the movement of waves, with the chamber being linked by lever arms through suitable gear mechanisms of a multitude of piston rods associated with a like number of hydraulic cylinders which are connected in hydraulic parallel relationship, the movement of the flotation chamber in an upward direction effecting movement of the piston rods in a first direction relative to the cylinders, the movement of the flotation chamber in a downward direction effecting movement of the piston rods in the opposite direction in their associated cylinders, this movement of the piston rods in their associated cylinders effecting a pumping of hydraulic fluid to a hydraulic turbine to power the same, the turbine in turn being drivingly connected to an electric generator such that movement of the water in the basin effecting movement of the flotation chamber effects the generation of electrical energy by means of the hydraulic turbine powered by the hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic cylinders which are, in turn, operated by the lever arms connected to the flotation chamber.
