This article explores the impact of electric vehicle (EV) charging on power systems and emphasizes the importance of careful analysis and planning. It discusses various topics related to EV charging, including EV hosting capacity, optimal placement of EVs and charging stations, technical impacts of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, shared vehicle rental, decentralised collaboration frameworks, intelligent energy management schemes, EV demand response, and optimal sizing and siting of public EV charging stations. The article provides valuable insights and solutions for utilities, academia, and policymakers to address the challenges and opportunities associated with EV charging. Additionally, the article introduces a new approach for determining the limits of transformers and overhead lines in relation to EV charging, using Monte Carlo simulations and proposing new parameters for evaluating maximum demands. The authors stress the need for further analysis and attention to the impact of EVs on power systems. [Extracted from the article]
