REIN is the Renewable Energy Information Network, the first website developed in Bangladesh to promote renewable energy in Bangladesh. The Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) has been hosting the website since 2000 with the support of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). This website was part of the Sustainable Rural Energy Project (SRE). The objective of the SRE project was to bring sustainable energy to the rural population of Bangladesh through a process of demonstration of a reasonable number of renewable energy technologies and in the process empower the rural poor, to the extent possible, towards sustainable livelihoods.
