• Abstract: We propose an autonomous quantum-battery protocol based on dissipatively selected quantum many-body scars. Using an embedding-type spin chain with an exact scar tower and a generalized interacting $J_1$--$J_2$ chain, we show that engineered local bond dissipation can drive the system from a passive state into a high-energy scar-supported manifold with large extractable work. The resulting charged states exhibit single-copy ergotropy close to the entropy-matched thermodynamic work bound while retaining the coherent structure associated with the scar ladder. Because the ideal scar manifold also supports nondecaying peripheral modes, we introduce weak local dephasing to obtain a stable charging protocol and find a broad regime in which the charging time is reduced without substantially degrading the stored work. Finally, an explicit scar-breaking perturbation produces a correlated loss of scar support and extractable work, demonstrating that the favorable battery performance is tied to the nonthermal scar structure rather than merely to the preparation of a generic excited state. Our results establish dissipatively stabilized many-body scars as a promising resource for autonomous and robust quantum energy storage.
