Abstract
The research presented in this paper proposed a methodology for development of cooling plants. Proposed methodology is presented with all steps through all its states. Evaluation of cooling plants has been conducted with regard to energy efficiency with focus on electrical energy saving. With the aim to achieve optimal system architecture of the proposed technical system alternatives, possible feedback to structure reselection is made to perform changes. Verification of the proposed methodology is made on real example like cooling plant in pharmaceutical industry, with several iteration steps.
