According to the U.S. DOE Building Energy Data Book (2010), the building sector is responsible for 40\% of the nation's primary energy consumption \cite{Gelman_2011}.

Historically, the building envelope has been tasked with the challenge of neutralizing highly variable solar, air, pollutant, and moisture conditions, all while maintaining a constant desired interior

In an attempt to maintain indoor conditions, modern building systems rely heavily on fossil-fueled mechanisms and highly insulated or glazed static building envelopes to reject exterior energy

To achieve significant progress towards global targets for clean on-site energy self-sufficiency within the building sector, integrating building envelopes with multifunctional energy transformation systems could provided a series of benefits such as: electrical generation, hydrothermal collection, daylighting, reduced cooling loads, humid air dehumidification, water recuperation, distributed heating and cooling, and improved human comfort and well being.
