The report contains the description of the science, the technology basis and the implementation of a new international scientific infrastructure the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI). The ultra-intense ELI laser user facilities will be built within the ESFRI process in the Czech Republic (Southwest of Prague), Romania (Magurele, South of Bucharest) and Hungary (Szeged, East Hungary). The purposes of the facilities is to design, develop and build ultra-high-power lasers with focusable intensities and average powers reaching far beyond the existing laser systems and organize them as international user facilities for new up to now unconceivable revolutionary experiments in different scientific disciplines as well as in technology and medicine. The laser science and technology developments in the facilities will pave the way to intensities above the ultra-relativistic regime. This will open new frontiers in fundamental science.
