Natural photosynthesis is a highly efficient process that uses sunlight irradiation to convert carbon dioxide into value‐added biomass. The Review by p. 476 ff., Bao‐Lian Su et al. summarizes the recent advances in the transformation of solar energy into electrical power, as represented here on the Inside Cover, through the exploitation of photosynthetically active proteins, organelles, and living cells.
