  abstract     = {{The "Mainz Energy-Recovering Superconducting Accelerator" (MESA), currently under construction at the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, Germany, requires a cryogenic infrastructure for its superconducting components. Prior to the start of the project, a helium liquefier was purchased that is capable of supplying the existing infrastructure of the Institute for Nuclear Physics, as well as the SRF test facility of the Helmholtz Institute. The liquefier has already been purchased in such a way that nitrogen pre-cooling can be integrated and can be upgraded for the operation of MESA. In addition to the superconducting accelerator modules, all components of the P2 experiment, i.e. solenoid, target and polarimeter (hydromoller), must also be supplied with liquid helium. Therefore, besides the upgrade of the liquefier, it is necessary to extend the system with a dedicated cryogenic supply for the P2 target. This paper presents the current status of the cryogenic supply of the MESA accelerator, the future modifications and additions.}},
