The forecasted share of corresponding/leading authors in scientific publications in the UK’s energy engineering and power technology sector shows a gradual decline from 79.28% in 2024 to 76.99% in 2028. This trend reveals a consistent year-on-year decrease, indicating diminished dominance by leading authors in this sector. In 2023, the share stood at an unspecified value, providing a baseline for this observed downward trend.
Future trends to watch for include increased collaborations or diversity in authorship within this field. Monitoring the impact of interdisciplinary research and the rise of new energy technologies could further shape authorship dynamics.
