contents In this paper, we employ the Comisso-Asenjo magnetic reconnection (MR) mechanism to investigate energy extraction from a rapidly rotating five-dimensional Kerr black hole (BH) with single- and two-rotation configurations. We analyze the efficiency, phase-space structure of accelerated and decelerated plasma energies, and the extracted power as functions of the spin parameter, reconnection location, plasma magnetization, and magnetic field orientation. We show that MR significantly enhances energy extraction from a five-dimensional BH with a single rotation and that the extraction efficiency is higher in the single rotation configuration than in the two-rotation case. We also evaluate the extraction rate and compare it with the Blandford-Znajek (BZ) mechanism, showing that the extracted power can exceed that of the BZ process in the single-rotation configuration. Our analysis shows that MR can significantly improve energy extraction in five-dimensional Kerr BHs with a single rotation, making them promising candidates for powering high-energy astrophysical phenomena.
