Abstract
Every year, the number of papers submitted to the Power Engineering Society increases. This growth, which is in part the result of the pressure to publish, is straining the publication process, overloading the pool of reviewers, and creating the impression that the quality of publications is diminishing. This paper summarizes the informal discussions which have taken place on the Power Globe List serve and shows the level of concern among members of the power engineering community. The paper covers aspects of the peer review process in PES, including present IEEE/PES publication policies, ethical aspects of the review process, technologies for aiding the review process, topics related to value of the technical content, graphics and peer review, and more. The several contributions make constructive suggestions which will hopefully improve the PES peer review process and the quality of the publications.
