The field of mobile ad hoc network (MANETs) has gained an important of the researchers and become very popular in last year’s. Mobile Ad hoc networks is a network that can change locations and configure itself; as it is infrastructure less and have no central administration. MANET nodes are mobile and battery powered and has limited energy resources. Life of nodes is directly proportional to the battery in the device operating at the node. Minimize energy consumption and maximize life of network is still an immerging issue of MANET. In order to enhance the lifetime of the Ad hoc network; various energy efficiency techniques are needed. This paper presents a survey on energy efficient routing protocols. These algorithms and methodologies modify routing protocol in order to reduce energy consumption and maximize life of network. These proposed methodologies also minimize energy consumption by selecting an energy efficient route.
