NOTES FOR CONTRIBUTORS
International Journal of Energy, Environment, and Economics is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes four issues per year. The journal is owned and operated by Nova Science Publishers and funded entirely by subscription revenue and author-optional publication services.
There is no charge to submit your article and have it published in the journal. Nova offers a number of optional publication services that carry fees, but authors are not required to select these services, and the services won’t be offered until after acceptance of the articles. These services include Open Access, color printing, article offprints, discounted print copies of the journal issue, and licenses for use of the published articles.
Submission of an article must be accompanied by a signed Copyright Transfer and Disclosure Form, which can be printed or downloaded here: https://novapublishers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/CTDF-Copyright-Transfer-and-Disclosure-Form.pdf. Submissions that do not include a signed Copyright Transfer and Disclosure Form will be treated as incomplete.
Authors will receive complimentary PDFs of their final articles upon publication. Print copies will be offered for a discounted price.
Authors may deposit and display the proofed versions of their articles in and on their personal non-commercial and affiliate non-commercial repositories and websites at any time. The same may be done with their final published articles only after a period of one year has elapsed from the day of publication.
Manuscript Submissions
Before submitting your article, please read the complete notes and instructions below to ensure that you understand Nova’s manuscript requirements and publication procedures and that you are in compliance with the ethical standards rightfully set forth by Nova, the publishing industry, and the scientific community.
Articles should be submitted by e-mail directly to the Editor listed below.

It is understood that articles submitted to the journal have not been submitted elsewhere for simultaneous publication consideration and have not been previously published, in whole or in part, unless the new article is an expansion of the original, in which case full transparency of the re-used portions must be provided. Please note that articles cannot be retracted or withdrawn after they have been published.
Manuscript Preparation
Submissions should include the following items as separate files.
– Title Page
– Anonymized Manuscript
Title Page
The Title Page will remain separate from the manuscript throughout the peer-review process and will not be sent to the reviewers. The Title Page should include:
– A concise and informative title
– All authors’ complete names with academic degrees and complete affiliations
– A complete address for the corresponding author, including an e-mail address
If you have variations of the title that you would like Nova to use as the Running Head, please mark that at the beginning of the article.
Anonymized Manuscript
Please remove any identifying information, such as authors’ names or affiliations, from your manuscript before submission.
The manuscript should be typed in Times New Roman 12-point font and have the following components in numbered order and each beginning on a new page. The text should be under the headings, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements, References, Tables, and Figures. Abstracts should not exceed 250 words and should incorporate background, objective, study group, methods, results, and conclusions. At least three key words should appear under the abstract.
Text
MS Word and Latex are the preferred input programs. If you use Latex, Nova requests use of the Nova macro. This is ARTICLE.STY set at 5.5 inches (13.97 cm) and letter size (not A4 paper). Please try to use outside justified page headers. If you would like to add any packages to this macro beyond those already specified, it is mandatory that the corresponding .sty files be submitted with the article. Nova currently uses the Windows Operating System.
Illustrations
All diagrams, photographs, illustrations, and charts (not tables) should be referred to in the text as Figures, and they should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals. These figures must be supplied as separate electronic files named in the format in which they were created, and they must be one of the following types: tiff, bitmap, jpeg, gif, ppt, psd, png, or eps. The resolution of these figures must be at least 300 dpi and of good contrast. Please use patterning instead of colors for all graphs and charts when possible. Each Figure should include a title and short description.
Figures must also be placed inside or at the end of the manuscript. If scanned images are used, please retain the original hard copy of the figure for possible transmission to Nova Science Publishers. If previously published figures are used, written permission from the copyright holders must be obtained and submitted along with the text indicating the copyright holder’s citation instructions. Such permissions must grant unrestricted use.
References
The preferred Style is APA for social sciences, Vancouver for biomedicine, AIP for physics, ACS for chemistry, and AMS for mathematics. Please use page setup letter size and not A4 paper. In-text references should be either author-identified or reference-number-identified and placed in square brackets on the line, e.g. [37].
