Impact Factor

IET Renewable Power Generation has seen its Impact Factor rise from 1.255 to 2.082 for 2011! A big thank you to everyone who has contributed to this success through the submission and review of papers.

Scope

IET Renewable Power Generation brings together the topics of renewable energy technology, power generation and systems integration. Other technologies having a direct role in sustainable power generation such as fuel cells and energy storage will also be covered, as will system control approaches such as demand side management, that facilitate the integration of renewable sources into power systems, both large and small. Specific technology areas covered by the journal include:

• wind power technology and systems
• photovoltaics
• solar thermal power generation
• geothermal energy
• fuel cells
• wave power
• marine current energy
• biomass conversion

The journal provides a forum for the presentation of new research, development and applications of renewable power generation. Demonstrations and experimentally based research are particularly welcome. Research that explores issues where the characteristics of the renewable energy source impact on the power conversion and where the wider system control or operation are central to the challenge of integration are particularly encouraged.

The journal is technology focused covering design, demonstration, modelling and analysis, but papers covering techno-economic issues are also welcome.
