Implications of variations in renewable cost projections for electric sector decarbonization in the United States.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The costs of wind and solar technologies have dropped rapidly, but unknowns about technological change and emissions policies create uncertainty about future deployment. We compare projections of U.S. wind and solar costs across published studies and use an energy systems model to evaluate how these reductions could alter electric sector planning decisions and costs under deep decarbonization. Model results indicate that wind and solar are the largest generation resources for many scenarios and regions, but shares depend on assumptions about costs, policy targets, and policy timeframes (spanning 14% to 67% of national generation by 2035). Renewables cost reductions lower decarbonization costs and reduce projections for nuclear and carbon-captured-equipped generation, but policy decisions have a larger influence on future trajectories. Lower wind and solar costs have more limited impacts on deployment of carbon removal technologies and the capacity of clean firm technologies in reaching net-zero emissions in the electric sector.
