Tariff-Aware and Carbon-Aware Supervisory Energy Management for the Sustainable Operation of a Grid-Connected Photovoltaic–Battery Energy Storage–Electric Vehicle Charging Station: A Dual-Time-Scale Evaluation

Grid-connected photovoltaic–battery energy storage–electric vehicle (PV-BESS-EV) charging stations require supervisory energy management that can coordinate tariff response, carbon-intensity signals, peak constraints, storage utilization, and converter-level operability within a transparent evidential framework. This study develops a bounded-reference rule-based supervisory energy management system (RB-SEMS) that preserves lower-level local converter controllers while generating operating modes and saturated reference commands for BESS power, grid exchange, and EV charging limits. A dual-time-scale evaluation framework is established by combining short-time switching/control simulations for dynamic traceability and SOC-sensitive protection with 24 h, 15 min EMS-level energy-balance simulations for cost, carbon, peak, PV utilization, EV service, and storage throughput assessment. Selected daily reference-injection cases are retained as copied-model diagnostic checks rather than as full-day switching-level validation. Under the D4-LSOC condition, RB-SEMS reduces the reported post-startup DC-bus deviation from 46.13 V to 40.60 V and the filtered BESS peak from 269.18 kW to 84.42 kW. In the E1-TOU scenario, E1-TOU-cost reduces daily total cost from 623.57 CNY to 564.05 CNY, lowers peak-period grid import from 183.75 kWh to 126.75 kWh, and increases local PV utilization from 71.13% to 78.71%; E1-PC66 further reduces the maximum 15 min grid import from 77.88 kW to 66.00 kW. Under the prescribed E2-PCC scenario, E2-CP reduces the calculated grid-related CO 2 emissions from 550.29 kg to 500.42 kg, whereas the price-only diagnostic increases them to 572.29 kg. Same-metric PV-SC and MILP comparisons, tested-range sensitivity analysis, and a throughput-based degradation proxy clarify that RB-SEMS is an interpretable supervisory baseline for cost–carbon–peak–cycling trade-off analysis rather than a cost-optimal controller or regionally validated proof of carbon reduction.
