  The European Spallation Source (ESS) uses a linear accelerator to deliver the high intensity proton beam to the target station. The average beam power is 5 MW with a peak beam power at target of 125 MW. In 2013 the ESS linac was costed and to meet the budget some modifications were introduced: the final energy was decreased from 2.5 GeV to 2.0 GeV and the beam current was increased from 50 mA to 62.5 mA to keep the same beam power. As a consequence the ESS Drift Tube Linac, DTL, has been re-designed to match the new requirements. This paper presents the main Radio Frequency (RF) and beam dynamics choices for the ESS DTL.
