Abstract: Green electricity hydrogen production(GEHP) is fundamental support for developing new-type power system (NPS) and achieving the green and low-carbon transformation in the transportation sector. It is key issue to build a hydrogen refueling facility network(HRFN) to link hydrogen production and consumption. Firstly, the framework of HRFN is proposed including hydrogen production points(HPP), hydrogen refueling stations(HRS) and hydrogen demand points(HDP). Secondly, a two-stage model is built. In the first stage, the siting model of HRS cluster is constructed considering the service capacity, service radius, and construction, operation and penalty costs. In the second stage, the bi-objective planning model of HRFN is constructed considering network stability, hydrogen storage and transportation forms and producing total costs. Finally, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region of China(BTH) is taken as case study to verify the effectiveness. Sensitivity analyses are conducted on four factors:HRSs' service radius, service capacity, GEHP's efficiency and HDPs' scope. The key findings are: 1)the service radius and capacity of HRSs and HDPs' scope all affect the layout of HRSs, with HDPs' scope further influencing HPPs' number; 2)the construction and operation costs are more impacted by changes in GEHP's efficiency compared to network stability; 3)the network should be strengthened to cover the whole processes from hydrogen production to consumption.
