Cadens LLC, based in Sullivan, Wisconsin, operates in the renewable energy semiconductor manufacturing sector. It focuses on hydropower technology, including full-scale 3D-printed composite turbine systems demonstrated at its ultra-low head hydropower research facility in southeast Wisconsin. The company pursues an off-grid "Microhydro microgrid" demonstration to refine its design and manufacturing capabilities, supported by a small team. In line with its mission, Cadens aims to enable energy independence and community development through clean, abundant energy. In 2026, Cadens began collaborations with the Department of Energy's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to explore whether additive manufacturing can produce lower-cost parts for low-head hydropower systems. That year, ORNL's Autonomous Systems Group also partnered with Cadens to develop a turbine design and manufacturing system intended to accelerate the deployment of new hydropower installations.
