Then reference is made to the "smart grid" and the connection of electric vehicles to it. The legal framework of e-mobility in Greece and the European Union is presented, as well as the plan for the expansion of the Greek network. In addition, the sources of air pollution and how electrification is related to them are investigated. Finally, the findings of the research are evaluated conclusions are drawn.
