The object of research is coal enterprises where powerful electrical equipment is used (underground installations up to 3000 kW, tunneling complexes of 500–1500 kW, technological complexes of 6–10/0.4 kV, etc.). The deficit of generated capacities, caused by growing energy consumption, can be reduced by regulating power consumption modes. The relevance of this issue is determined by the need to conduct a research of the electricity consumption system, to determine the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of electricity consumption using mathematical models. The lack of mathematical models makes it difficult to analyze energy intensity and consumption modes of each technological operation in the overall balance of electricity consumption of coal enterprises. The article considers the structure and classification of the main technological groups of energy consumers, the development of mathematical models for each type of load modes, as well as a generalized model of electricity consumption of coal enterprises, with the use of mathematical apparatus of probability theory and mathematical statistics. As a result of the work, mathematical models of the electricity consumption process for the main technological groups and for models of daily electricity consumption of coal enterprises as a whole were developed, and it was also established that technological objects of electricity consumption are divided into three different values, in terms of power consumption modes: constant, uniform and pulse. For each class of consumers their statistical characteristics were obtained. The work results can be applied for managing power consumption modes of coal enterprises
