In this talk, I will present the recent progress done in my group on the high-throughput analysis of organic photovoltaic materials using volunteer computing time from around the globe. Daily, we are screening ~30,000 compounds for their organic photovoltaic properties. I will present the results of the screening of more than 5 million molecules, and some of the features of, and lessons learned from the high-performance materials found with our first-principles and cheminformatics approaches. The project URL is http://cleanenergy.harvard.edu, and anybody with spare CPU time can contribute. If you are reading this, you should go to our website and begin contributing your spare CPU cycles to the effort.
