Summary:The potential of closed distribution systems (CDSs) in Estonia is statistically undervalued and underutilised among power system stakeholders. This qualitative study aims to understand critical stakeholders in Estonia regarding the closed distribution system to understand the hindering factors of CDS uptake and the prognosis of the overall development of CDSs in Estonia. It is recognised that the Estonian industry sector is expected to set up the majority of Estonian CDSs, while some are formed by former small-scale distribution system operators looking to reduce their expenditure on current processes. This study provides insight into the possible progress of the rest of the Baltic Sea region countries or similar regions.
