Sir Standen Leonard Pearce (28 September 1873 – 20 October 1947) was an English electrical engineer, perhaps best remembered for designing Battersea Power Station, on which he was assisted by Sir Giles Scott and the architectural practice Halliday and Agate.

He was a key player in rationalising electricity supply in Britain and in the design of cleaner and more efficient power stations.
