Asymmetric Nash Bargaining-Based Hydrogen–Carbon–Green Certificate Trading in Highway Hybrid Refueling Stations

With the increasing integration of transportation and energy systems, highway energy replenishment facilities are gradually evolving into hybrid refueling stations that integrate photovoltaic generation, energy storage, battery charging, and hydrogen refueling. However, due to differences in resource conditions across stations, independently operated hybrid refueling stations find it difficult to simultaneously improve overall economic performance and renewable energy utilization. To address this issue, this paper investigates the coordinated operation and distributed optimization of highway hybrid refueling stations. First, an inter-station hydrogen–carbon–green certificate trading framework is established, and a trading model for a cluster of hybrid refueling stations is then developed on this basis. Then, the inter-station trading problem is decomposed into two subproblems: symmetric trading volume determination and asymmetric Nash bargaining-based price determination. These two subproblems are solved in a distributed manner using the alternating direction method of multipliers. In addition, a hydrogen transportation model is developed to translate trading decisions into feasible transportation arrangements under highway network and hydrogen tube trailer scheduling constraints. Finally, the case study demonstrates that the proposed model enables multi-resource sharing among hybrid refueling stations, reduces the overall system cost by 21.30%, and achieves a fairer distribution of benefits among stations.
