1. An electrical power generator, comprising:

  • a first part configured to be anchored in an anchoring point such that the first part can perform a swaying motion relative to the anchoring point, the first part being configured to be located in a fluid and configured such that, when said fluid moves, it generates vortices in the fluid, so that a lift force is generated on the first part, which produces an oscillating and swaying movement of the first part relative to the anchoring point, said oscillating movement having an amplitude; and

    a second part that surrounds, at least partially, said first part;

    the generator comprising a system for generating a magnetic field which produces a magnetic repulsion force between the first part and the second part, which varies with the oscillating movement of the first part and which has a maximum value that increases when the amplitude of the oscillating movement of the first part increases.
