The details as to the Scopus registration and the current rating of CSE are given below:
“CIGRE Science and Engineering, ISSN:2426-1335”. The journal is active and indexed in Scopus.
In February 2023 CSE reached a landmark Cite Score of unity with 97 references out of 101 papers. This is an incredible achievement from the score of 0,4 in 2020. Authors can be assured that, if their papers are selected for publication, that they will be referenced. In addition the impact factor is very high with free download and circulation to all CIGRE members in over 90 countries.
The review process is extremely rigorous with reviewers hand-picked by the SC chairpersons. The reviewers are therefore all experts in the topic covered by the paper under review. As such, when the paper is accepted, the authors can rest assured that their paper will stand any scrutiny from readers globally. Unfortunately, due to the rigorous review process, many papers are rejected. This assures the highest quality of papers are published.
CIGRE continues to advertise four of the papers from the edition on Twitter and LinkedIn platforms enabling readers to immediately access these on their devices to read whenever and wherever they may be.
The 28th Edition published in March, mainly covers important developments relating to operation of the network with high penetration of IBR. There is also a paper on the Thesis award selected by a CIGRE panel of experts as well as “best of” paper from the recent conference in the Gulf States. An excellent paper on assessing composite insulators which can be used by utilities as a valuable guide, is also included.
