In recent years, research on Electric Vehicles (EVs) has gained considerable attention due to their potential to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and curb environmental pollution significantly. Various stakeholders play a pivotal role in the large-scale EV integration into the existing power grid by providing unique services, particularly in grid power management and charging of EV. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the critical role played by key stakeholders in the large-scale integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into the power grid, with a particular focus on grid power management and charging infrastructure. It systematically examines the involvement of Distributed Network Operators (DNOs), EV Owners (EOs), and Charging Station Owners (CSOs), elucidating their respective objectives, responsibilities, and challenges. Furthermore, the paper delves into power management strategies, reactive power regulation, and advanced control methodologies aimed at enhancing grid stability. A case study on EV adoption in Western Australia is presented to contextualize current developments and future trajectories. The study concludes by identifying key challenges associated with EV-grid integration and providing strategic recommendations to facilitate a more resilient, efficient, and sustainable power system.
