1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aotearoa New Zealand's shift towards a sustainable, decentralised electricity system will involve local generation, greater consumer empowerment and more active intervention at both local and grid levels. Demand-side management (DSM) will play a key role in achieving these goals. However, the complexity of electricity demand and the risk of unintended consequences mean decentralisation must be approached with care, considering the interests of all electricity sector participants, including residential consumers from across the socioeconomic spectrum. This paper highlights key considerations for this transition, informed by recent, validated agent-based modelling research targeted at residential consumers, which should inform policy: (i) behavioural dynamics, (ii) electricity pricing structures, (iii) socioeconomic variations in benefits of distributed generation and storage, (iv) the importance of energy efficiency and (v) consumer trust.
