The transition towards circular supply chains (CSC) in the electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) sector presents significant opportunities and challenges, particularly in the context of remanufacturing. The present study identifies the key factors that influence the development of circular supply chains through remanufacturing, using a network thinking approach. The findings of the experts identified 30 factors which were subsequently categorised into the following groups: legislative, reverse logistics, technological, economic, product-related, and customer-related. The analysis yielded five critical nodes, namely: qualified personnel, business model requirements, the availability of sorting technology and software, the short product usage time by customers, and the dominance of linear business models. The paper proposes three decision-making scenarios (optimistic, pessimistic, and realistic) using dynamic network analysis. Each scenario delineates the ramifications of the critical nodes for stakeholders, which include enterprises, public institutions, consumers, and research bodies. The study provides practical recommendations for each group with the aim of fostering the transition from linear to circular models. The novelty of the study lies in the application of the network thinking methodology to model systemic interactions in remanufacturing, in the classification of factors by influence and reactivity, and in the identification of development scenarios for CSCs. This holistic approach is conducive to the establishment of sustainable, closed-loop supply chains and underscores the significance of technical, behavioural, and regulatory enablers for the scaling of remanufacturing practices.
