    The impact of belt rolling resistance along rollers (indentation resistance of the belt into the roller) on possibilities of reducing the power energy consumption of belt conveyor drives, is discussed in the paper. Possibilities of reducing the power energy consumption by modification of belt construction and by using the bottom cover made of the rubber having special properties, is presented. Through modification of belt construction and choosing the proper materials for bottom cover, it is possible to reduce the rolling resistances, which are the biggest component of conveyor's main resistance and thus to improve the energy efficiency of the conveyor. The results of test on the impact of some belt parameters on the rolling resistance are showed.
