The careful choice of chemical structures allows the fabrication of high‐performance molecular solar cells by solution deposition of molecular semiconductors from the green solvent 2‐MeTHF. In their Communication on page 14378 ff., G. C. Bazan and co‐workers demonstrate the relevance of these findings within the context of sustainability, the need to replace toxic substances for mass production, and the overall evaluation of various emerging photovoltaic technologies.
