Voltaic Revolutionary Communist Party (Parti communiste révolutionnaire voltaïque, PCRV) is a communist party in Burkina Faso. It was founded on 1 October 1978, following a split in the Voltaic Communist Organization (OCV). PCRV followed the political line of the Albanian Party of Labour. It promoted 'National Democratic and Popular Revolution' (RNDP).

PCRV did not support the revolutionary government of Thomas Sankara. This led to a split and the formation of the Burkinabé Communist Group.

PCRV publishes Bug-Parga.

PCRV is an active participant in the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations (Unity & Struggle).
