Energies 2024 Exceptional Reviewers List

We are thrilled to share the updated Exceptional Reviewers List 2024. Committed to fostering rigorous research and promoting knowledge exchange, Energies (ISSN: 1996-1073) recognizes the significant role that our reviewers play in maintaining the quality and integrity of the articles we publish. According to surveys conducted in 2023, 91% of our authors rated the peer reviews they received as good or excellent, thanks to our pool of excellent reviewers.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to all the reviewers who have generously volunteered their time and expertise to assist in Energies’ peer-review process. Their dedication and attention to detail in evaluating manuscripts, offering valuable feedback, and contributing to academic rigor are truly commendable.

The Exceptional Reviewed List was first introduced in March 2024 to recognize and honor scholars who deliver consistently exceptional review reports to our journal. Each quarter, a group of outstanding reviewers will be selected and introduced here.
