Introduction: The world is facing an economic crisis that has led to high energy prices in the EU. These high energy prices have been a contributing factor to the challenging economic situation in Sweden, affecting businesses, industries, and households. EU countries have limited access to energy and rely mostly on imports. The key objective is to reduce these costs through the utilization of renewable energy resources. Geothermal ventilation, in particular, is an efficient and promising source. However, this system has not yet been implemented in Sweden. The aim of this study is to investigate and analyze the effectiveness of horizontal ground geothermal ventilation systems in the context of Swedish conditions.Method: This study includes quantitative and qualitative data from a case study. Data collection involved literature study, interviews with various stakeholders, and simulations using Ansys software to analyze air flows and temperature conditions.Results: This section presents the results of a comprehensive study on basic geothermal ventilation in villas, carried out in accordance with Swedish environmental regulations. Interviews with representatives from ventilation companies and Jönköping municipality showed mixed opinions about the system's potential. While some expressed interest and approval due to energy savings and environmental adaptation, others had concerns about profitability and cost-effectiveness. Testing the system's efficiency using thermal exchange simulation software showed lower-than-expectedresults, indicating the need for further improvements. However, despite its lower efficiency, the geothermal ventilation system was still considered an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional methods, helping to reduce the environmental impact of the construction industry.Analysis: Ground geothermal ventilation system meets Swedish environmental standards and contributes to energy savings in new buildings. Although the system meets the standards, further improvements are needed to increase efficiency. Requirements and prerequisites include the right insulation classes and specially manufactured ground pipes. Implementation in villas can be challenging due to costs and heat delivery. Despite this, the system improves indoor air quality and reduces energy consumption, even if the temperature differences may be smaller than expected.Discussion: In this chapter, the results and conclusions from the study are discussed. Despite limited research on the subject, the study shows that shallow geothermal ventilation has potential, but there are challenges and limitations for implementation in Swedish villas. The method choice of literature review and qualitative interviews was appropriate to achieve the purpose, but more participants and research are needed to increase validity and reliability. Recommendations are given for further research in the area.
