Abstract: Resilience”is an important attribute of cities in responding to natural disasters and improving their risk prevention and control capabilities.Frequent blackouts will cause serious economic and livelihood losses,hinder urban development and even threaten national energy security.“Resilient distribution network”is the inevitable requirement and basic guarantee of“resiliencity”.The high proportion of building load is the main characteristic of urban distribution networks.The behavior of building load after power supply recovery is different from that in normal state,which not only puts higher requirements on power supply,but also provides the distribution network with resilience to enhance its potential.Urban buildings are one of the main places where users interact deeply with the power system,electricity market,big data,etc.Its coordinated operation with the distribution network is a complex cyber-physical-social system （CPSS）.First,this paper focuses on the load recovery stage of the urban distribution network and summarizes the problems faced by the current high-resilience coordinated operation of urban buildings and distribution networks in the physical,social and cyber dimensions.Then,the current research status of the coupling mechanism and modeling of urban buildings and distribution networks under extreme conditions （physical dimension）,behavior characterization and incentive mechanism design of urban building prosumers （social dimension）,and post-disaster situation awareness and data sharing of distribution network （cyber dimension） are reviewed.Finally,the four challenges faced by the research on the high-resilience coupling operation of urban buildings and distribution networks from the perspective of CPSS are summarized,and future research paths are prospected.
