The IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics (TPEL) covers all issues in the field of power electronics, including conversion, control, applications, conceptual issues, and system integration of electric power using semiconductors and switching devices. The focus of this journal encompasses power converters including components and system integration for their applications. This journal publishes works involving techniques and methodologies on modeling and simulation, analysis, design, fabrication, testing and characterization, evaluation and validation, and applications of power-electronic components, converters, converter systems, and system integrations. Review, tutorial, and survey articles with a viewpoint on the state-of-the-art and future technological advances are also welcome.Papers that are not within the scope of the journal may/will be summarily rejected and the authors may be suggested to submit their work to a more suitable journal. Examples include but are not limited to manuscripts focused solely on physics, theory, materials, design and/or characterization of components, systems, and applications without sufficient and demonstrated content in power electronics.

Community reports come from authors' own submissions (confidence 0.5) and are not a promise from the journal; for publisher figures, the journal's own definitions apply.

The journal's website is authoritative for fees; sources were observed at different times and each keeps its own value, without averaging.
