About the Journal

Journal Description

The Journal of Energy, Engineering and Sustainable Development (JEESD) is a peer-reviewed, open-access applied research journal published by KGRTC. It is intended to serve as the institution's knowledge platform for training, research, consultancy, innovation, technical practice, and regional energy-sector transformation. The journal emphasizes the dissemination of practical, industry-relevant research rather than functioning solely as an academic repository. It aims to bridge academia and industry by publishing high-quality scholarly work that contributes to the advancement of energy systems, engineering practice, and sustainable development. The journal will initially publish two issues per year (biannual), with plans to transition to quarterly publication as submission volumes and editorial capacity increase. It adopts a double-blind peer-review process, promotes open access to research, and is designed to support future indexing through high-quality metadata and publication standards.
