Journal of Energy Engineering

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Energy Engineering reports on the scientific and engineering knowledge in the planning, development, management, and finances of energy-related programs. The journal is dedicated to civil engineering aspects of the issues, sources, and programs that are either directly related to, or can ultimately contribute to, the production, distribution, and storage of energy. Multidisciplinary subjects are especially encouraged.

Original contributions are encouraged in, but not limited to, the following areas: generation of electric power; nuclear power issues; energy planning (planning for generation capacity expansions, hydropower planning, network and transmission planning, reliability); energy policy and economics (financial and customer markets, regulatory and financial issues); energy development (solar power, renewable energy, waste-to-energy systems); energy systems operation (thermal and hydropower operation and optimization, scheduling, load forecasting, demand-side management); energy efficiency, reducing consumption of or conservation of energy; energy sustainability as related to energy and power production, distribution, and usage; waste management and environmental issues; and energy infrastructure issues (power plant safety, security of infrastructure network).

Prior to submission, please check the Procedures for Submission to the Journal. Below, you will find the Area Codes listed with the name of each Associate Editor.

Paper Area Codes

(ESP) Energy system planning, economic analysis and policies (e.g., resource adequacy, transmission and capacity expansion, energy markets and trading, emission policies, and renewable portfolio standards)
(FOS) Advances on fossil energy technologies (e.g., clean coal technology, coal combustion, and coal gasification technology), carbon capture and storage, and biomass combustion/
(COM) Advances on combustion engine technologies (e.g., combustion chambers, fuel induction and injection, emissions control, biofuels and alternative fuels)
(ALT) Alternative energy systems and integrated energy systems (e.g., renewables, nuclear, natural gas, hydrogen energy systems, and integration of electric vehicles)
(STO) Energy conversion efficiency, advanced technologies on energy harvesting and energy storage (e.g., battery systems, fuel cells, pumped-storage systems, and flywheel)
(INF) Civil and cyber infrastructure for energy management systems (e.g., smart grids, indoors heating and cooling, energy efficiency of buildings)
(SUS) Energy sustainability, energy waste management, and environmental systems
(SEE) Subsurface energy engineering (e.g., theoretical, numerical and experimental methods for extraction of subsurface energies, underground fluid flow simulation, energy storage of geological subsurface, reservoir characterization and simulation)
(FED) Forums and editorials
(OTH) Others

ASCE strives to advance research across civil engineering and related disciplines that will help inform, develop, and inspire sustainable action. We therefore encourage authors to categorize their research using at least one of the Sustainable Development Goals identified by the United Nations.
