Abstract
The article considers the method of optimizing the pumps in the water supply system of the first water rise station in the zones of the day, where there is a different system of payment for electric energy. To assess the regulatory capacity of pumps on a temporary parameter, the authors of the article propose to use existing water tanks in the water supply system, which act as a buffer, smoothing the unevenness of water consumption. The studies have revealed that the comprehensive optimization of pumps on the criterion of minimizing specific electricity consumption by lifting water and optimizing the operation of pumps in the zones of the day allows to significantly improve energy efficiency and reduce the cost of extraction and transportation of water to the consumer. In the article, the authors examine an algorithm that allows us to assess the economic potential of pump regulation in the real-world conditions of the system.

Summary
Implementation of a set of organizational and technical measures aimed at reducing energy consumption is always a pressing task in the current conditions of the water and sewerage industry. Transporting water to the consumer are reduced Such measures include the introduction of modern energyefficient equipment, regulation of the operating modes of pumping stations of the first and second rise, optimization of pressure schedules, reduction of water losses during transportation, construction of water reuse facilities, etc. Under the current operating conditions of water utilities, the development of measures aimed at regulating the operating modes of pumping units to optimize electrical load schedules according to the criterion of minimum payment for energy carriers is relevant. Tariff regulation of drinking water contributes to the implementation of technical measures aimed at improving the energy efficiency of water utilities, as a result of which the monetary costs of extracting and
