A large number of forecast approaches related to different forecast horizons and to the specific problem that have to be predicted have been proposed in recent scientific literature, from physical models to data-driven statistic and machine learning approaches. In this Special Issue, the most recent and high-quality researches about forecast are collected. A total of nine papers have been selected to represent a wide range of applications, from weather and environmental predictions to economic and management forecasts. Finally, some applications related to the forecasting of the different phases of COVID in Spain and the photovoltaic power production have been presented.Research & information: generalbicsscDirect Normal Irradiance (DNI)IFS/ECMWFforecastevaluationDNI attenuation Index (DAI)bias correctionnowcastmeteorological radar dataoptical flowdeep learningBates-Granger weightsuniform weights(REG) ARIMAETSHodrick-Prescott trendGoogle Trends indicesHimalayan regionstreamflow forecast verificationpersistencesnow-fed riversintermittent riverscostumer relation managementbusiness to business sales predictionmachine learningpredictive modelingmicrosoft azure machine-learning servicetravel time forecastingtime seriesbus servicetransit systemssustainable urban mobility planbus travel timelearning curveforecastingproduction costcost estimatingsemi-empirical modellogistic mapCOVID-19SARS-CoV-2PV output power estimationPV-load decouplingbehind-the-meter PVbaseline predictionResearch & information: generalLeva Soniaedt43963Leva SoniaothBOOK9910557390403321Feature Papers of Forecasting3023582UNINA
