![]() David Pryke is an Executive General Manager at Siemens in Australia, responsible for the divisions of Power and Gas, Power Generation Services, and Wind Power and Renewables. He oversees a portfolio of innovative products and solutions across Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific region. David has more than 30 years of experience in the energy industry. His introduction to the field of power generation came in 1981, when he was involved in the construction of large coal-fired power plants in New South Wales, as well as the major half-life refits of existing power plants. In 1990, David was responsible for constructing and managing Australia’s largest maintenance facility for a steam turbine generator plant. Shortly thereafter, he was responsible for the acquisition of large hydro generator maintenance facilities in Hobart as part of a government privatisation process. David joined Siemens in 1999, as the Head of Power Generation. The business quickly became a leader in the service segment of the market. A leading position as a supplier of new equipment and turnkey solutions was also subsequently established within the segments of wind power, fossil power generation, and oil and gas. Continual expansion of Siemens through acquisition and organic growth has resulted in an ever-expanding range of high-quality offerings to the local market. David has a degree in electrical engineering and a master’s degree in project management. |
