A Review on the Cross-Sector Resource Management Framework for Electric Vehicles Integration: Challenges, Solutions, Key-Enabling Technologies, and Future Directions

The adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is a transformative step toward reducing CO2 emissions and achieving global sustainability targets such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals and IMT-2030. However, large-scale EV integration poses significant challenges across multiple interdependent domains: the Power Grid (PG), Transportation Systems (TS), and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Most existing research approaches these sectors independently, lacking a holistic view of their interconnected constraints and resource dependencies. This review presents a comprehensive and critical analysis of cross-sector resource management for EV integration, emphasizing the interrelations among PG, TS, and ICT. We identify key resource requirements, examine cross-domain challenges, and evaluate the effectiveness of current solutions and Key-Enabling Technologies (KETs) in addressing them. Through this analysis, we highlight critical research gaps and advocate for a unified and collaborative crosssector approach to resource management. By offering this cross-sector resource management perspective, the review contributes new insights to guide future research and policy development in support of sustainable and scalable EV ecosystem integration aligned with 6G and IMT-2030 visions.
