Between 2020 and 2023, the number of registered childcare places in England fell by nearly 50,000, [partly due to financial challenges faced by providers](https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/childcare-and-early-years-provider-survey/2023?ref=newsletters.qs.com), reduced funding, and the impacts of COVID-19\. Rising operational costs, staff shortages, and regulatory requirements have also led to closures, making childcare less accessible and reducing overall capacity.

Taiwan's renewable energy capacity grew by over 80% from 2019 to 2022, largely driven by government efforts to expand solar and wind energy. This growth aligns with Taiwan's goal to achieve [20% renewable energy by 2025 ](https://www.trade.gov/market-intelligence/taiwan-renewable-energy-market?ref=newsletters.qs.com)and reduce reliance on coal. Major investments in offshore wind and solar infrastructure boosted capacity significantly during this period​.
