The flexibility of energy storage systems (ESS) is essential for mitigating the uncertainties associated with variable renewable energy (VRE) sources in power system operations. While ESS scheduling for high-renewable systems has been widely studied, accurately coordinating energy-limited ESS with intertemporal coupling under uncertainty and non-anticipative operation remains a challenging robust scheduling task in practice. In this context, a multistage robust scheduling model is developed that captures the energy-limited characteristics of ESS while enforcing non-anticipativity. The model schedules upper and lower boundaries of ESS state of energy (SOE) and generator outputs in the day-ahead timeframe and derives a robust operating region (OR) via decision-dependent uncertainty (DDU). These robust ORs enable temporal decoupling so that the multistage problem admits an equivalent, tractable two-stage formulation. A parallel Nested-C&CG algorithm is employed to compute the optimal robust OR (OR2) efficiently. In addition, an enhanced look-ahead intra-day dispatch is introduced that dynamically updates a window-specific robust OR using ultra-short-term VRE forecasts and their uncertainty, while anchoring the window end to the day-ahead OR2to preserve recursive feasibility; this mechanism reduces day-ahead conservatism and maintains robustness across the rolling horizon. Numerical experiments conducted on modified IEEE 6-bus and IEEE 118-bus systems demonstrate the model's adva...
