Edward 'Ted' Pritchard was an Australian mechanical engineer and inventor renowned for his work on small-scale modern steam engines. He was passionate about steam technology, advocating for its advantages over conventional internal combustion engines, such as efficiency, lower emissions, and greater fuel efficiency. During the 1970s, he endeavored to establish a steam-driven car industry in Australia, although this ambition ultimately led to his bankruptcy. Near the end of his life, Pritchard continued to innovate and refine his designs, ultimately leaving behind a concept for an exceptional small steam engine.
