There are many good reputation journals such as :-
IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics
IEEE Transactions on Energy Conversion
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery
IET Power Electronics
IET Electric Power Applications
IET Renewable Power Generation
Electrical Engineering by Springer-Verlag
International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems by Wiley
Electric Power Components and Systems by Taylor and Francis
Elsevier Journals like: - International Journal of Electrical Power and Energy Systems, Electric Power Systems Research, Energy, Applied Energy, Renewable Energy, Energy Conversion and Management.
In the general field of "energy", the best five journals are:
Applied Energy
Energy Conversion and Management
Renewable Energy
Solar Energy
Energy
Of course, if you are targeting a more specific field (e.g., solar PV, energy policy, electrochemical energy conversion, combustion, etc.), then you have more specialized options.
For me, the best energy journals are the following:
1. Solar Energy, Elsevier.
2. Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, ASME.
3. Applied Energy, Elsevier.
4. Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, AIP.
This is my subjective selection based solely on the fact that I have been invited to review some of the manuscripts submitted to them, ... and because there I have published more papers!
nature energy is the best journal related to energy with IF 46.859.the 2nd one is energy and environment with IF 30.067.the 3rd one is advance energy materials with IF 21.875.other journal are nano energy(13.120).
Applied Energy (Focuses mainly on bio-based energy in last three years especially experimental)
Energy (Novel techs, renewable systems, and experimental studies are appreciated)
Energy Conversion and Management (Mostly integrated renewable/nuclear/fossil based systems are published)
Energy and Buildings (Good for applications for residents)
Applied thermal engineering (You need to check their latest issues and paper contents in order to waste your time to submit. Even if your work is significant it might be rejected is it is out of this years scope)
Int. Journal ofThermal Sciences (Appreciates full model analysis espcially energy systems with heat transfer and thermofluid analysis)
Many ASME journals are also good.
Solar Energy, Wind energy, Renewavle energy ...
If your work is on hydrogen energy anf fuel cell science check Int J Hydrogen Energy, Fuel cells.
Some review journals are: Progress in Energy and Combustion Science, RenSusEnREv...
Such Elsavir journals are leading. But with a long review period.
But journals such as (indexed)
1. International journal of energy and environmental engineering
2. Building simulation
(Springer journals) provide a fast publication process, actually it depends on the quality of work. Anyhow layer mentioned are faster in publications than firstly mentioned.
