In Ad Hoc network, there is no any central infrastructure but it allows mobile devices to establish
communication path. Since there is no central infrastructure and mobile devices are moving randomly, gives rise to
various kinds of problems, such as security and routing. In this paper we consider the problem of routing. Routing is one
of the key issues in MANET because of highly dynamic and distributed nature of nodes. Especially energy efficient
routing is most important because all the nodes are battery powered. Failure of one node may affect the entire network.
Since every mobile node has limited power supply, energy depletion has become the main threats to the lifetime of the ad
hoc network. So routing in MANET should be in an efficient way. In this paper, we present a survey of such energy
efficient routing algorithms.
