It exploits the promising energy recovery technology in order to collide an intense 50 GeV lepton beam with one hadron beam from the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) in parallel to the hadron-hadron operation. The paper presents the studies that have been performed to assess the performance of the machine and the efficiency of the energy recovery process for different scalings of the ERL. The studies include emittance blow-up due to synchrotron radiation emission and beam-disruption created by the strong beam-beam force at the interaction point. The design principles of the ERL structure are discussed, including the particle detector bypass and the interaction region, and the results of the tracking simulations are presented, considering the complete multi-turn ERL process. Special attention is turned to the lepton beam emittance budget and the resulting energy recovery performance.}}, }
