description As the share of renewable energy generation continues to increase, the new-type power system exhibits the characteristics of coordinated operation between the main grid, distribution networks, and microgrids. The microgrid is primarily concerned with achieving self-balancing between power sources, the network, loads, and storage. In decentralized multi-microgrid (MMG) access scenarios, the aggregation of distributed energy within a region enables the unified optimization of scheduling, which improves regional energy self-sufficiency while mitigating the impact and risks of distributed energy on grid operations. However, the cooperative operation of MMGs involves interactions among various stakeholders, and the absence of a reasonable operational mechanism can result in low energy utilization, uneven resource allocation, and other issues. Thus, designing an effective MMG operation strategy that balances the interests of all stakeholders has become a key area of focus in the industry. This paper examines the definition and structure of MMGs, analyzes their current operational challenges, compiles existing research methods and practical experiences, explores synergistic operational mechanisms and strategies for MMGs under different transaction models, and puts forward prospects for future research directions.
