  Project X is a high intensity proton facility being developed to support a world-leading program of Intensity Frontier physics over the next two decades at Fermilab. The proposed facility is based on the SRF technology and consists of two linacs: CW linac to accelerate beam from 2.1 MeV to 3 GeV and pulsed linac accelerate 5% of the beam up to 8 GeV. In a CW linac five families of SC cavities are used: half-wave resonators (162.5 MHz); single-spoke cavities: SSR1 and SSR2 (325 MHz) and elliptical 5-cell β=0.6 and β=0.9 cavities (650 MHz). Pulsed 3-8 GeV linac linac are based on 9-cell 1.3 GHz cavities. In the paper the basic requirements and the status of development of SC accelerating cavities, auxiliaries (couplers, tuners, etc.) and cryomodules are presented as well as technology challenges caused by their specifics.
