BHPetrol has teamed up with TNB Electron to launch a 200 kW DC EV charging station at BHPetrol Jalan Genting Klang, the first of a series of more EV chargers at BHPetrol stations nationwide. This twin-gun facility charges RM1.50 per kWh.
Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) estimates a provision of 1,200 MWh of charging energy over five years, which has the potential to reduce 460 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions over the same period.
“BHPetrol is delighted to be part of Malaysia’s efforts to achieve net zero carbon by 2050, as announced in the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP). We believe this initiative will have a positive impact on the growth of EV infrastructure in Malaysia.
“This partnership between BHPetrol and TNB Electron is a crucial step in developing the EV ecosystem in Malaysia. By providing fast and reliable EV charging infrastructure, we are supporting the transition towards cleaner mobility and ensuring convenience for EV users,” said BHPetrol CEO Ir Azizul Azily Ahmad.
“This collaboration between TNB and BHPetrol is a strategic step that combines the expertise of both parties to provide a more extensive and accessible EV charging infrastructure. With this partnership, EV users in areas where BHPetrol stations are available can expect to access efficient and environmentally friendly charging facilities,” TNB president and CEO Datuk Ir Megat Jalaluddin Megat Hassan said.
Two more are coming soon – BHPetrol Karak-KL and BHPetrol Ladang Bikam R&R Northbound – for the convenience of long-distance EV drivers. Each location will also have a twin-gun 200 kW DC setup.
