Silicon is expected to play a major role in the development of the next generation lithium-ion batteries. However, high volume expansion (similar to 300%) and kinetic sluggishness make it a commercially unviable standalone anode material. To mitigate these issues, we present a novel approach of making nano-porous silicon from readily-available hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy through an industrially scalable dealloying process. We provide key insights into this novel process through the first principle calculations, taking into account various thermodynamic and kinetic effects. Under identical test conditions, commercial silicon sustains only 40 cycles, while nano-porous silicon has no issues until the test terminates at 300 cycles. We also present a strong case for the economic viability of the lithium-ion batteries with nano-porous silicon anode in the automobiles industry based on cost-savings in various front and enhancements in key performance metrics.
