“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Frequently asked
Is IET Generation Transmission & Distribution a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag IET Generation Transmission & Distribution. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, which is a positive signal.
Is IET Generation Transmission & Distribution indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, IET Generation Transmission & Distribution appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of IET Generation Transmission & Distribution?
Papers in IET Generation Transmission & Distribution are cited about 3.2 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 126. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is IET Generation Transmission & Distribution (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, IET Generation Transmission & Distribution is Q2 in all 3 of its subject categories. By category: Energy Engineering and Power Technology: Q2, #101 of 289; Control and Systems Engineering: Q2, #104 of 315; Electrical and Electronic Engineering: Q2, #230 of 811. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; IET Generation Transmission & Distribution is cited about 3.2 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 126.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of IET Generation Transmission & Distribution?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for IET Generation Transmission & Distribution. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is IET Generation Transmission & Distribution open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
What is the article processing charge (APC) to publish in IET Generation Transmission & Distribution?
Article processing charge (APC): $3,000 per accepted article (DOAJ). Fee waivers are available. The exact charge can vary by article type and any fee waiver, so confirm the current amount on the journal's own site.

Submission to publication for IET Generation Transmission & Distribution takes about ~36 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for IET Generation Transmission & Distribution.
