Abstracting and indexing
The journal is abstracted and indexed in Ei Compendex,[3] Scopus,[4] and the Science Citation Index Expanded.[5] According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2021 impact factor of 4.937.[6]
Fictitious author identities and affiliations
In 2024, Energy Reports retracted two articles by Nicholas Zafetti[7][8] for authorship manipulation and the fact that Zafetti's claimed affiliation, Clemson University, stated that "The records of the university do not support a relationship between Clemson University and Nicholas Zafetti as a student, faculty, or visiting scholar." In fact, Zafetti's identity is likely fictitious.[9]
At nearly the same time, an article by Dragan Rodriguez, allegedly of Case Western Reserve University, was retracted for similar reasons.[10][11] Two other articles by Rodriguez remain without amendment as of February 2025.[12][13]
Another article was retracted partly because one of the authors stated an affiliation to a fictitious company.[14]
