Journal Title
Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments
SUSTAIN ENERGY TECHN
ISSN / eISSN
2213-1388
Aims and Scope
The world must move toward a more sustainable energy future, and the development of technologies that facilitate this for transport, heating, and power systems is crucial. This journal encourages papers on any aspect and scale of technologies for energy generation and/or utilization that decrease the impact of that production and use, from the laboratory to commercial applications. Papers on:
•technology development/improvement,
•integration,
•regulation, standards and policy are within the scope of the journal, as well as case studies.
Technology assessments estimating and discussing metrics such as scale of application,size and weight per unit of energy output, economics, efficiency, and state of technology development are particularly welcomed, for both individual or comparative systems.
The main fields of focus are generation, storage, and conversion; energy efficiency and distribution; and policy and economics. Energy fields include, but are not limited to, carboncapture and storage, wind, bioenergy, solar/PV, hydro, geothermal, and conventional fuels, along with system analysis, environmental issues, energy harvesting, and building design. Papers that incorporate more than one of these topics, either in a unified system or through a comparison of these fields, are encouraged.

When submitting the revised manuscript, we were informed that in a recent editorial board meeting, the editor-in-chief decided to limit the word count and the number of figures/tables. However, the associate editor understands the authors and recognizes that sometimes it is necessary to include sufficient text and figures/tables to fully describe the research. However, if there are limitations in the main text, he suggested considering adding a Supplementary Material (SM) as Appendix A. This way, the most important content can be retained in the main text, while other content can be transferred to the SM. This practice is adopted by many journals, including Nature and Science. The process from submission to acceptance took a total of 5 months. The editorial efficiency was quite high, with three reviewers providing feedback. The manuscript was returned for major revisions after two months of submission, and the comments were constructive. After another month, it was returned for minor revisions, and after the revisions were made, it was accepted within a month. Overall, the efficiency was quite high. In addition, Professor Ni Meng, the senior editor, is very helpful and actively assists authors in answering questions. Highly recommended.
The quality of the journal's articles is worrisome, with a large number of nepotistic relationships (especially noticeable in the articles by Indian authors, a quick search would reveal that).
I advise friends who are considering submitting to be cautious. If you can endure the unreasonable demands of the EIC and the nearly month-long editing process after each revision, then go ahead.
