Eli-NP contributes greatly to two of the objectives: 1) The scientific and technological excellence included in the ELI-NP project to the highest degree, both through a gamma and laser beam system, which will constitute global reference points. The research that will take place at ELI-NP will cross new technological and scientific boundaries (see also chapter “Demand Analysis” in the Feasibility Study for more information) 2) ELI-NP is part of the pan-European ELI project and will provide over 25,000 hours/year of open access, free of charge to research organisations, exclusive on the basis of excellence. Access for non-profit research will be provided against payment of fees reflecting the total cost + fair margin under the Community Framework on State Aid for Research and Development. Revenue from non-profit research will remain secondary (approximately 6 % of operational costs
