Danielle Castley is now the President of Pelican Energy Partners, where she leads efforts in advancing energy solutions. Previously, Danielle was focused on developing a high-temperature, lightweight neutron-shielding technology designed to reduce costs and enhance safety in the nuclear industry. Her technology operates at a higher temperature than existing polymer-based neutron-shielding products, offering resistance up to 300°C compared to the typical 180°C. This advancement opens up significant opportunities for deploying neutron shielding materials in higher-temperature locations within reactor containment and improves safety margins in applications designed for lower temperature shielding. Danielle holds a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from Dartmouth College and is the founder of Becq.
