Forest reference emission levels (FRELs) and related forest reference levels (FRLs) are benchmarks used under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) for assessing performance in REDD+ implementation. They are expressed as tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year for a reference period and compared with emissions and removals reported for a results period.
