Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.

Author Guidelines

All submissions should follow APA style (Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 7th edition, 2010). An abstract of 250-300 words or less, summarizing the main points of the article, should accompany the manuscript. The authors' names, affiliations, telephone numbers, and email addresses should appear on a separate title page, and only on this page, to ensure anonymity in the review process. The manuscript must be in Microsoft Word document format. Manuscripts should be single-spaced, with wide margins and pages numbered consequently. All tables and camera-ready figures should be included within the same document file as the rest of the manuscript. The paper should be written in professional English. The length of 6000-10000 words is preferred. All manuscripts should be prepared in MS-Word format, and submitted online: https://www.jaoam.com/index.php/jaoam/about/submissions or sent to: editor.jgets@gmail.com

Alert: Starting in 2022, the ournal of Green Energy and Transition to Sustainability will transition to the APA 7th edition style guide for publications and will expect that at least one author have an ORCID iD.

ORCID iDs: All published articles must include an ORCID iD for at least one author, preferably the first author (see APA 7 ed. Section 2.7). The open researcher and contributor identifier (ORCID) is a free, 16-digit, linkable, persistent digital identifier (iD) that helps keep individual researchers distinguished from one another, especially other researchers who may have the same name. The authors may want to read “What is ORCID before registering for one.
