AB - <jats:p>The design of robust, high-performance photocatalysts is key for the success of solar fuel production <jats:italic>via</jats:italic> CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>conversion. Herein, we present hypercrosslinked polymer (HCP) photocatalysts for the selective reduction of CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> to CO, combining excellent CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> sorption capacities, good general stabilities, and low production costs. HCPs are active photocatalysts in the visible light range, significantly out-performing the benchmark material, TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> P25, using only sacrificial H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O. We hypothesise that superior H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O adsorption capacities led to concentration at photoactive sites, improving photocatalytic conversion rates when compared to sacrificial H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>. These polymers are an intriguing set of organic photocatalysts, displaying no long-range order or extended pi-conjugation. The as-synthesised networks are the sole photocatalytic component, requiring no co-catalyst doping or photosensitiser, representing a highly versatile and exciting platform for solar-energy conversion.</jats:p>
