Barriers and Enablers of Circular Economy in Electrical and Electronic Equipment: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid technological change, shorter lifecycles and rising demand for electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) are increasing waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and emphasise the need for a circular economy. This paper identifies barriers and enablers of the circular transition in EEE and outlines interventions.
