The stability and economy of the electronic vehicle distribution network system is increasingly important as the number of electric vehicles in use continues to rise. An electric vehicle (EV) and Internet of things (IoT) charge scheduling method is proposed in this paper which uses smart contract in the distribution network (DN) with uncertain renewable energy output. Based on user charging demand and power grid load level, this paper explores peak load shifting, guiding EV charging options by electricity price to change the demand response of each node, thereby regulating the DN power quality. A smart contract is created between the user and the charging station to realize the electricity price renewal in the power flow calculation cycle. This enhances the rationality of electricity price formulation and reduces deviation between the forecast load and the actual load, ensuring the validity of the method to a certain extent. According to the achievement of the smart contracts signed with the charging station, users are given rewards or fines, which reduces the default rate of the user. This decentralized transaction process improves the security and completeness of the transaction. The feasibility of utilizing this method for the distributed power grid is verified through simulation on a 34-node test system.
