In a Kerr-Sen-like spacetime from Bumblebee gravity, increasing the Lorentz symmetry breaking rate and Bumblebee charge enlarges the allowed region for energy extraction via magnetic reconnection and moves it closer to the horizon, with peak efficiency when cosmic censorship is marginally violated.

abstract
We investigate mechanisms of energy extraction from a rotating black hole in terms of negative energy-at-infinity. In addition to the Penrose process through particle fission, the Blandford-Znajek mechanism by magnetic tension, and the magnetohydrodynamic Penrose process, we examine energy extraction from a black hole caused by magnetic reconnection in the ergosphere. The reconnection redistributes the angular momentum efficiently to yield the negative energy-atinfinity. We derive a condition for the process to operate in a simple situation, where the plasma is incompressible and the magnetic energy is converted completely to the plasma kinetic energy locally. Astrophysical situations of magnetic reconnection around the black holes are also discussed.

Energy extraction via Comisso-Asenjo magnetic reconnection from rotating dyonic black holes in N=2 U(1)^2 gauged supergravity is possible but tightly limited by gauge coupling g and dyonic charges, peaking at intermediate spins rather than near-extremal.

Energy extraction from a rotating black hole via magnetic reconnection: Bumblebee gravity
In a Kerr-Sen-like spacetime from Bumblebee gravity, increasing the Lorentz symmetry breaking rate and Bumblebee charge enlarges the allowed region for energy extraction via magnetic reconnection and moves it closer to the horizon, with peak efficiency when cosmic censorship is marginally violated.
