Journals for “Geothermal Energy Systems and Applications”
Suggested journals
Topic match is relative to the best match in this search (100% = best). Under each journal, "Publishes on" shows which of the matched topics it publishes and what share of its recent papers they make up. Fees are shown only where DOAJ records them; "Not recorded" does not mean the journal is free.

Before you submit
Use this list as a shortlist, not a decision. For each journal, read its aims and scope and a few recent articles, check its peer-review and fee policy on its own website, and confirm any indexing (Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed) with the indexer itself. Be careful with journals that promise very fast acceptance or that contact you by email asking for papers.
How the ITS Journal Score works
One formula applies to every ranked journal, using open data from OpenAlex: 45% citation impact, 35% h-index and 20% size (papers published 2021–2025). Citation impact is the smaller of the journal's two-year mean citedness and its five-year citations per paper, so a journal whose output collapsed cannot jump to the top on old citations. Each part is half a percentile and half a log-scaled value, so the very top is still separated. Growth and open-access share are shown separately and are not part of the score.
A journal is ranked only if it published at least 50 papers in 2021–2025 and was active in at least five of the last six years. Field rankings compare a journal only with journals in the same field; the field is the OpenAlex field with most of the journal's recent papers, or "Multidisciplinary" when no field has 30% of them.
What this is not: the ITS Journal Score is not a Journal Impact Factor, CiteScore or SJR, and this site does not say whether a journal is indexed in Scopus, Web of Science or PubMed. Always confirm aims and scope, indexing, peer review and fees on the journal's own website before you submit.
