Beschreibung: The circular economy has increasingly become mainstream in the attempt to address environmental concerns and manage and eliminate waste for the conservation of finite resources. Nevertheless, due to real-world complexities, the transition from a linear to a circular economy is neither straightforward nor smooth. Thus, a mix of linear and circular practices prevails globally. Through the exemplification of an illustrative real-time outdoor power product, this exploratory study aims to identify the practical challenges in transitioning to a circular economy. The findings of this study provide an in-depth understanding for practitioners to consider and manage the challenges of the circular economy transition.
