We present an analysis of energy transfers in a reconnecting near-Earth plasma, obtained by interpreting MMS data within the framework of multi-fluid plasma theory. In our analysis, energy transfers are calculated and examined locally. This way, correlations between different mechanisms of energy exchange can be retrieved in all spatial and temporal detail provided by the high-frequency, multi-point sampling capacity of the four MMS satellites. .
