Electric vehicles (EVs) or renewable energy (RE) sources provide the potential to significantly reduce emissions of carbon as of the economy's transport & power generation sectors. There can be a range of impacts and benefits to the mass adoption of EVs, with the ability to aid in integrating renewable energy into current electricity grids. Present literature on EVs, power grid as well as the integration of RE is reviewed in this paper. Literature’s main methods and assumptions are deliberated. Economic, environmental & the grid effects of EVs are studied. Several research studies have been conducted on the ability of EVs to integrate Res. literature indicates that excess RE generated on a power grid can be reduced significantly. In the Vehicle to grid (V2G) idea the Plug-in electric vehicle (PEVs) can be performed as the load or as the distribution energy source. By using the V2G idea the performance of the electricity grid will increases. The efficiency, stability & reliability will increase.
