For the fist time the preparation of a mostly solid‐state high efficient electro‐conductive material comprising 1‐methyl‐3‐propylimidazolium iodide (MPII), benzimidazole (BI), iodine and lithium iodide was reported. In this electrolyte, BI acts as not only additives but also gelators. With its significant electrochemical properties, an overall efficiency of 3.07% was achieved under AM 1.5 (100 mW/cm 2 ).
