The European Green Deal declared that Europe must decarbonize to become carbon-neutral within 2050. To do so, the European Parliament emphasized hydrogen as a major tool for energy transition. In regard of current environmental challenges, liquid hydrogen has raised interest as energy carrier for energy storage and transport. Due to growing use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy, intermittent sources will increase. Hydrogen production methods will become mostly intermittent with renewable energies. However, due to historical hydrogen production by steam methane reforming, liquefaction was developed at steady nominal charge. In order to feed current liquefaction processes with renewable hydrogen, a buffer system will become required. This thesis studies the effect of buffer and liquefaction combination on performances and cost. In order to carry out this liquefaction from intermittent source, the study is performed based on industrial data from a variable co-product hydrogen profile. This profile acts as a simplified case. The scope of the study is drawn by considering compressed hydrogen as temporary storage for the buffer while liquefaction unit is modelled around Linde Leuna cycle. The technical-economical study covers sensitivity analysis on both buffer and liquefaction unit. For the buffer unit, storage capacity, storage pressure, liquefaction flexibility and recuperation rate impacts are examined. Liquefaction sensitivity analysis includes pressure drop, electricity cost and capacity study.  It is highlighted that 100% gaseous hydrogen recovery is not profitable due to high costs increase for recuperation higher than 95%. Storage pressure and capacity as well as liquefaction flexibility drive buffer cost and recuperation rate of the co-product hydrogen. Considering liquefaction study, results highlight that pressure drops cause first order deviations in energy consumption as well as on cost. Results show that the specific buffer cost is evaluated between 71% and 59% of liquefaction cost. Hence the thesis raises attention on future work on heat exchangers design, pressure drop optimization and liquefaction unit flexibility to allow an optimized renewable liquid hydrogen production.
