A buoy for obtaining energy from a wave in a body of water, and associated methods are disclosed. The buoy can include a floatation portion to provide buoyancy for the buoy in water. The buoy can also include a ballast portion operable with the floatation portion to move in a pendulum motion in response to a wave in the body of water. The floatation portion can be substantially maintained above the ballast portion. In addition, the buoy can include an energy conversion device to generate power in response to the pendulum motion of the ballast portion. |
