As global energy demand continues to rise, achieving a green and low-carbon energy transition has become the core task of energy systems. Ensuring the stability and security of power systems is particularly critical during this transition. Facing the challenges of natural disasters and human factors, the development of resilient construction in power systems under extreme events is of paramount importance. In this review, the definition, characteristic curves, resilience assessment methods of resilient power systems and the overall framework of cyber-physical power systems(CPPS) are explored in depth. Based on a review of the literature, the situation awareness(SA) technology in resilient power systems is comprehensively analyzed, especially grid SA and network SA. Combined with research results of the coupling relationship of CPPS, the SA framework of CPPS is constructed, and the collaborative SA of information side and physical side is studied to improve the resilience of power system in the face of climate change and energy challenges. The future research focus is also proposed.
