Submission Guidelines

【官网信息】

1. Before Submission-Checklist

The following are required for submission:

Make sure the manuscript is suitable for this journal via reading the Aims & Scope.

Make sure that issues about publication ethics have been considered.

Make sure that all authors have approved of the submission.

2. Online Submission

2.1. Ensure that the following items are present:

One author has been designated as the corresponding author with contact details:

E-mail address

Full postal address

When submitting your manuscript, please make sure that the following items have been prepared as carefully as possible:

Cover letter (mandatory).

Manuscript prepared based on the Journal’s Template (mandatory).

Author biography and graphical abstract (mandatory).

Electronic supplementary materials (optional).

Author contributions and other necessary materials not for review (optional).

2.2. How to Submit

Our

online submission system (https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/pef)

guides you stepwise through the process of entering your article details

and uploading your files. The system converts your article files to a

single PDF file used in the peer-review process. Editable files (e.g.,

Word) are required to typeset your article for final publication. All

correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and

requests for revision, is sent by e-mail.

2.3. Reviewer Recommendation

Authors

could suggest several potential reviewers by providing the names and

institutional e-mail addresses. Authors should not suggest reviewers who

are colleagues, or who have co-authored or collaborated with you during

the last three years. Editors would not invite reviewers who have

potential competing interests with the authors.

Note: the editor decides whether or not to invite the reviewers you suggested.

3. Manuscript Preparation

3.1. Language

Please

write the text in good English. Possible grammatical or spelling errors

should be carefully avoided, making the submissions conform to accepted

standards of written technical English. The Journal’s editors are not

responsible for correcting errors in grammar or spelling. Manuscripts

that require extensive English revision may be rejected without review.

3.2. Length of manuscripts

There

are no strict limits on the number of published pages for both research

and review articles. Nevertheless, authors are asked to make the

manuscript as concise as possible and to limit to less than 50

manuscript pages.

3.3. Article types

Power and Energy Future publishes four types of papers: Review, Research Article, Spotlights, Perspectives.

The

journal publishes research articles that encompass both fundamental and

applied studies; reviews that provide state-of-the-art critical

syntheses; spotlights featuring policy analyses, case studies, and

insights into technology transfer; and perspectives that present

emerging concepts and foster interdisciplinary dialogues.

3.4. Text formatting

For

submission in Microsoft Word, use a normal, plain font (e.g., 12-point

Times New Roman), one space line, and two columns for text. Use the

automatic page numbering function to number the pages. Do not use field

functions. Use tab stops or other commands for indents, not the space

bar. Use the table function, not spreadsheets, to make tables. Use the

equation editor or MathType for equations. Note: If you use Word 2007,

do not create the equations with the default equation editor but use

MathType instead.

4. Detailed Formatting Instructions

Please

follow this order to type the manuscript: cover letter, title page,

abstract, keywords, main text (including tables and figures), appendix

(if necessary), acknowledgements, declaration of competing interest,

author contributions ( not required for front-matter articles),

references, author biography, graphical abstract and electronic

supplementary material (if necessary).

4.1. Cover letter

All

submissions must include a cover letter that includes a convincing

statement of the novelty and significance of the work and the relevance

to the aims and scope of Power and Energy Future. This statement should

not be a duplicate of the submission’s abstract. If the submission has

been rejected previously by any journal, including Power and Energy

Future, the cover letter should include the manuscript's previous

submission history and response to referees' comments, as an appendix to

the cover letter.

If

any electronic supplementary materials (ESM) are submitted together

with the manuscript, a list of the ESM should be given as an appendix to

the cover letter. The authors should explain briefly why these ESM

should be provided and why these ESM cannot be incorporated into the

main body of the manuscript.

4.2. Title page

The title page should include:

A

concise and informative title: Title should be succinct, objective,

interesting and grammatically correct. Titles are often used in

information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where

possible.

Author

names and affiliations: Please clearly indicate the given name(s) and

family name(s) of each author and check that all names are accurately

spelled. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual

work was done) below the names. Provide the full postal address of each

affiliation, including the country name and, if available, the e-mail

address of each author.

Corresponding

author: Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages

of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. This

responsibility includes answering any future queries about Methodology

and Materials. Ensure that the e-mail address is given and that contact

details are kept up to date by the corresponding author.

*Changes

to the author list between initial submission and revision must be

accompanied by an explanatory statement in the cover letter for the

revision and a completed "Change in Authorship Request" form, which will

be sent by the Journal Editorial Office. These changes will be accepted

at the discretion of the Editor and may lead to rejection of the

manuscript. Changes of authorship or the order of authors are not

accepted after acceptance of a manuscript.

4.3. Abstract and keywords

A

concise and factual abstract is needed for regular research articles

and review articles to state the main purpose and research questions of

the study, the methods, the main results, and the key conclusions.

Abstract should be 120–250 words in length. No footnotes, references,

figures, or tables may appear in the abstract.

Immediately after the abstract, please provide 4–6 keywords, which can be used for indexing purpose.

4.4. Main body

Manuscripts

describing original research typically include the following sections:

Introduction; Methods; Results and discussion; Conclusions. In

submissions that have a significant theoretical or mathematical

component, a section for the description of the analytical procedures

may be required.

Heading/section

levels (numbered). For regular research articles and review articles,

please use the decimal system of headings. Please divide the article

into clearly defined and consecutively numbered sections and

subsections. Sections should be numbered 1, 2, etc. Subsections should

be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, …), 1.2, etc. Use this numbering

also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to “the text”.

Each section and subsection should be given a brief heading and each

heading should appear on its own separate line. Review article should

begin with an Introduction section and end with a Conclusions or Summary

section.

Abbreviations.

Abbreviations should be defined at the point of first use and be used

consistently thereafter. Abbreviations defined in the Abstract should be

re-defined in the main text of the submission.

Footnotes.

Essential footnotes to the text should be numbered consecutively and

placed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Footnotes to the

table should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or

asterisks) and placed immediately below the table.

Units.

Please follow internationally accepted rules and conventions such as

those defined by the International Organization for Standardization

(ISO). If other units are mentioned, please give their equivalent in

supplementary information.

Formulae

and symbols. Formulae, symbols, and all subscripts, superscripts, Greek

letters, and other characters must be legible and carefully checked.

Standard mathematical notation should be used. All symbols used in

manuscript must be explained. If necessary, a list of symbols may be

provided and placed at the end of the Main body.

Equations.

Numbering consecutively any equations that have to be displayed

separately from the text (if referred to explicitly in the text), and

referring the equation with Eq. (1), Eq. (2) … in the text. For the

simple formulae which appear in the line of normal text, please use

solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms,

e.g., x/y. Powers of e are often more conveniently denoted by “exp”. In

principle, variables should be presented in italics.

Figures.

All the figures, including data plots, photographs, diagrammatic

sketches, flow charts, etc., should be embedded, approximately in their

final sizes, in the main text near the paragraph in which they are first

referenced, not on separate page(s) at the end. All figures should be

numbered using Arab numerals (figure parts should be denoted by

lowercase letters) and supplied with a figure caption. Please make sure

that all elements found in the figure are identified in the caption.

Figures should always be cited in text, such as Fig. 1, Fig. 2 … in

consecutive numerical order. Color figures will remain in color in both

the printed version and the online version of the journal, at no cost.

The authors are encouraged to use color figures in the submitted

manuscript.

Tables.

All tables should be numbered using Arab numerals and supplied with a

table title which explains clearly and concisely the components of the

table. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the

manuscript (for example, in figures). Tables should always be cited in

the text, such as Table 1, Table 2 … in consecutive numerical order.

Appendix.

An appendix, if needed, is presented without numbers. If there are two

or more appendices, they should be numbered consecutively. Equations in

appendices should be designated differently from those in the main body

of the manuscript, e.g., (A1), (A2), etc. In each appendix equations

should be numbered separately.

Acknowledgements.

The content of Acknowledgments is a list of people who contributed to

the work in the manuscript but are not named in the author list, and a

list of funding sources that supported the research presented. The names

of funding organizations should be written in full. Do not include

acknowledgements on the title page, as a footnote to the title or

otherwise.

Declaration

of competing interest. Authors are required to disclose financial or

non-financial interests that are directly or indirectly related to the

work submitted for publication. Authors should complete the declaration

of competing interest statement in the submitted manuscript even if

there are no interests to declare. If no conflict exists, the authors

should state:

“The authors have no competing interests to declare that are relevant to the content of this article”.
