A quantum battery consisting of two coupled qubits driven by a delta-pulse is investigated. By using the framework of open quantum system, we obtain analytically several quantities describing the performance of the quantum battery. In particular, we are interested in the stored energy and the extractable energy known as ergotropy. We discover that by tuning the driving strength and the coupling strength, we can isolate the origin of the ergotropy: quantum coherences, population inversion, or combination of them. Furthermore, increasing the coupling strength not only enhances the stored energy, the ergotropy and charging power, but also reducing the charging time, which boosts the performance of the quantum battery.
