In article number 1901363, Haifeng Yu and co‐workers report a flexible and large‐scale produced solar thermal fuel device, by compositing a photoliquefiable azobenzene derivative and a fabric template. Solar energy can be controllably and repeatedly stored in the device and released as heat due to the photoisomerization and phase transition of the photoliquefiable azobenzene derivative.
