Scopus vs. EI Compendex in 2025: Key Differences
| Factor | Scopus | EI Compendex |
|---|---|---|
| Emerging Topics | Climate policy, social impact, AI | Advanced materials, nuclear fusion |
| Industry Ties | NGOs, policymakers, startups | Engineering firms (Siemens, GE) |
| Acceptance Rate | ~30% (multidisciplinary emphasis) | ~25% (technical novelty required) |
| Post-Proceedings | Often in Elsevier/Springer journals | IEEE Xplore, technical reports |
How to Validate 2025 Conference Indexing
- Scopus: Use the **Scopus Preview Tool** to confirm 2025 events (updated quarterly).
- EI Compendex: Check **Ei Compendex Source List** for 2025 coverage.
- Red Flags: Avoid conferences with:
- No past proceedings in IEEE Xplore/Springer.
- "Guaranteed indexing" claims without official proof.
FAQs for 2025 Submissions
Q: Will hybrid conferences (online/in-person) still be indexed?
A: Yes, but prioritize events with past indexed hybrid editions (e.g., IEEE conferences).
Q: Which database is better for hydrogen energy research?
A: Scopus for policy and lifecycle analysis; EI Compendex for engineering prototypes.
**Q: How to leverage AI tools for conference paper preparation?**
A: Use AI for data analysis (e.g., predicting energy demand), but disclose all tools in the methodology section.
Pro Tips for 2025 Success
- Target Dual-Indexed Conferences: Some IEEE events publish in both Scopus and EI Compendex.
- Collaborate Early: Industry partnerships (e.g., with energy startups) boost acceptance chances.
- Track Deadlines: Use **WikiCFP or ConferenceAlert** for 2025 energy events.
