Abstract: Strengthening institutional capacity is an absolute prerequisite for a research center to contribute to the global discourse on sustainable energy policy. This article discusses the development of an international journal focused on the sustainability of energy and policy, managed by the Center for Public Policy and Energy Law Studies (PSHKPE) at the Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM), Universitas Sebelas Maret. Through an integrative governance approach, the journal is designed not merely as a publication outlet, but as a strategic instrument to enhance institutional recognition, strengthen global partnerships, and translate research findings into policy recommendations. A SWOT analysis reveals that the synergy between the expertise of academics with high h-indices and their extensive professional networks serves as a primary asset for implementing competitive editorial standards. Governance evaluations indicate that the digitalization of the publication system—via the Open Journal System (OJS)—and the enhancement of the editorial team’s human resource capacity are key to ensuring the journal’s sustainability amidst the challenges of international indexing. This initiative demonstrates that developing a reputable publication platform is a fundamental step toward transforming a research center into a "center of excellence" that plays an active role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on a global scale.
