# Progress in Energy and Combustion Science (progress-in-energy-and-combustion-science)

## Journal positioning

Progress in Energy and Combustion Science (Elsevier) is a **review journal**: it
publishes authoritative, comprehensive, critical reviews in energy and combustion
science, not primary research. Its articles are long, scholarly syntheses that map a
field, weigh conflicting evidence, expose open problems, and set the agenda for future
work — frequently invited or proposed in advance. The single most common misfit is a
primary-research manuscript (new experiments or one model) submitted as if it were a
review; another is a shallow literature survey that catalogs papers without critical
judgment. A submission succeeds only if its authors can credibly claim field-level
authority and deliver a genuinely critical, integrative account. This skill is a
