The existing analysis on the Higgs data at the LHC has significantly improved our knowledge over electroweak symmetry breaking. However, to understand electroweak phase transition or origin of flavor, etc, precision measurements of this scalar boson in SM have driven the discussion on several next generation electron-position colliders such as CEPC/FCC-ee/ILC etc. By adding an electron beam of 60-140 GeV to the current LHC, the Large Hadron-electron collider was first proposed as a DIS facility. In this talk, I will discuss the physics potential of this machine, in particular, this e-p collider may become a candidate for the "Higgs factory" as an alternative to the electron-positron colliders with much lower budget. In addition, due to the absence of color-exchange between two colliding beams, this e-p machine will also provide much opportunity to study other electroweak boson fusion processes such as anomalous triple gauge boson couplings and electroweak exotics.
