An ocean wave energy conversion system comprising a float adapted to ride on the surface of the ocean in reciprocal vertical motion in response to ocean wave front action, first support means extending downward from the float deeper into the ocean; and, magnetohydrodynamic electric generator means mounted to the first means at a level of attenuated vertical wave action in the ocean, the generator comprising a duct arranged to channel the flow of sea water vertically therethrough in response to the reciprocal vertical motion of the float, second means including magnetic field elements for applying a strong magnetic field cross-wise to the longitudinal axis of the duct and the flow of sea water therethrough, electrode means positioned in the duct and in contact with the flowing sea water therethrough such that the electrode means receives electrical energy generated by magnetohydrodynamic phenomenon as the sea water passes upwardly and downwardly in a relative manner through the magnetic field, and transfer means connected to the electrode for conveying the generated electrical energy outward from the magnetohydrodynamic electric means generator to an external electric load.
