Articles accepted for publication will be asked to pay an Article Publication Charge (APC) to cover publication costs.
**Tax will be added to all fees charged, when applicable (includes VAT/Sales tax or any other applicable taxes).**
Members of the World Society of Sustainable Energy Technologies will receive a 10% discount if they declare their membership details to the editorial team before publication.
Waiver Information
Requests for waivers should be made upon submission in your cover letter to the editors.
If you do not have funds available to pay the APC (e.g., because your institution/funder will not cover the fee) then we may be able to offer a discount or full waiver.
Should you need to discuss waiver options or the APC in general, please ensure that you contact the editor as early as possible. Editorial decisions are made independently from the ability to pay the APC.
