• Final Submissions

• Sample articles. I attached some examples under this folder. Please reference to the articles for the style and requirements of the Power and Energy Magazine articles.

Write a guest editorial introducing the issue of approximately 1,500 words (up to 2,000+ words is OK.)

Typical Requirement for an article published in Power and Energy Magazine

• • Select authors for five or six (preferred) articles. Each article should be 5,000 to 6,000 words that are consistent with the usual Power and Energy Magazine guidelines (well written for a wide audience, use active voice, 6 to 8 Figures, no equations, etc.). Typically, up to three articles focus on North America and at least three articles discuss other areas so as to capture the international character of IEEE.

  • Add six “For Further Reading” at the end of each article

  • One line bios of authors, such as name and affiliation. Do not include titles, such as PE, Ph.D., etc.

  • No footnotes in the articles

In-my-view (IMV)

• In My View is typically 2,000 to 2,500 words without any figures

  • Can have multiple authors for IMV.

  • While footnotes are not allowed, on rare occasion you can have up to six “For Further Reading”

Provide all of the required material for the issue to the editor in chief at least 6 months prior to the publication date (This is a firm deadline.)

• • Formatting requirements (All items should be in MSWord without any special formatting. Just type the article in a single column (as opposed to the double column formatting found in transaction papers).

  • Indicate one primary contact for each article and provide their email address upon submitting the article.

  • One author (normally the primary contact) must sign the copyright (attached). IEEE will send the copyright form to the contact for electronic signature. However, it is a good idea to send the author the copyright form early to ensure that the author’s legal department will not get involved with the copyright at the 11th hour.

  • IEEE will not change the copyright. Early versions of figures will be sent to confirm their acceptability. Another issue with figures is citing proper attributions. For example, an organization might own the copyright for a figure, but allow IEEE to use it. The figure should indicate: “Courtesy of XYZ corporation” or something similar after the Guest Editor confirms that permission has been granted. Figure titles, etc. should NOT be embedded in the JPG files.
