Publication Fee

iRASD Journal of Energy & Environment (iRASD-JEE) does not charge a submission fee. An Article Processing Charge (APC) is payable only for manuscripts that are accepted for publication after completion of the journal’s peer-review and editorial process.

For international authors, the APC is USD 300 for each accepted article. For authors from Pakistan, the APC is PKR 40,000. For authors from low-income countries, as classified by the World Bank, partial waivers or fee adjustments may be considered.

In limited cases, the journal may consider additional partial waivers or fee adjustments in accordance with its APC policy. Requests for waiver or fee-adjustment consideration should be made at the time of submission or during the initial administrative stage. Editorial decisions are made independently of an author’s ability to pay, and editors, editorial board members, and reviewers are not involved in decisions regarding APC waivers or fee adjustments.

The APC contributes to the costs of editorial administration, peer-review management, copyediting, typesetting, file preparation, online publication, website maintenance, DOI registration, digital archiving, and other routine publication services necessary for journal operations.

Payment instructions are provided after formal acceptance of the manuscript. No APC is charged for manuscripts that are rejected or withdrawn before acceptance.
