| description | To integrate large-scale variable renewable energy resources (RESs) in modern power grids, the coordinating control area (CA) operation is the most cost-effective method. This article reviews the technical aspects of CA cooperation. Firstly, a brief overview of the active balancing control within each CA is discussed. Secondly, three general control structures for CA cooperation are innovatively proposed, the corresponding implementation details are analyzed, and some representative technologies are also provided in the systematic analysis. Then, some future research directions such as large-scale power sharing by DC, active power control of RES bases, and the new structure for distributed energy resources in local power grids are prospected. Finally, the changes in power systems brought about by their evolution and importance for further promoting cooperation between CAs are summarized. |
