<p>This study investigates the thermodynamic behavior of a two-qubit quantum system, where each qubit is coupled to an independent thermal reservoir, either bosonic or fermionic. Using a master equation approach, we analyze both steady-state and time-dependent ergotropy to understand how different reservoir statistics affect work extraction. In bosonic environments, ergotropy consistently declines with increasing temperature due to thermal noise. In contrast, fermionic reservoirs exhibit more complex behavior, with ergotropy enhanced by particle transport under non-equilibrium conditions. Our results reveal a threshold-like sensitivity to the chemical potential configuration, leading to qualitatively distinct regimes of energy storage performance. Time-resolved analyses show that the system’s approach to steady state varies depending on the type of reservoir and the coupling strength between qubits. These insights highlight how carefully engineered reservoir properties and non-equilibrium driving can be leveraged to optimize quantum battery performance.</p>
