Molecular photoswitches can be used for solar energy storage through daily, weekly or seasonal energy storage cycles. The cover for article number 1703401 by Kasper Moth‐Poulsen and co‐workers illustrates a vision for future implementation combining solar energy capture in a liquid molecule system, long term storage and the release of the stored energy for domestic heating applications.
