As a self-financed journal, Emerging Trends in Engineering and Sustainability (ETES) operates entirely on article processing charges (APCs), which support the journal's operational needs including editorial management, peer-review infrastructure, digital archiving, indexing, and online and print production. These charges are essential for maintaining the journal’s high publication standards while ensuring free and permanent access to all published articles.
However, as part of its commitment to supporting researchers and promoting equitable access to publishing opportunities, Al-Naji Group will fully sponsor all APCs for the journal’s inaugural year of publication. This initiative reflects the dedication to fostering inclusive academic exchange and encouraging contributions from a diverse range of scholars.
