What happened
EVPower will deploy a 27-bay EV charging hub (12 DC, 15 AC) with 1.28MW planned capacity at Vitória, a new commercial development in Kota Laksamana, Melaka, targeted for Q3 2028 completion. The project uses a co-investment model where developer Gene & Quin Development prepares supporting infrastructure while EVPower funds, deploys, and operates the chargers, with smart contactless payment support.
Why it matters
For founders considering EV-adjacent products or infrastructure partnerships in Malaysia, the co-investment split here is a concrete template: developer bears civil/infrastructure costs, CPO funds and operates the hardware. The 2028 timeline and 1.28MW across 27 bays also signals that large-scale EV destinations are being designed into new commercial builds from day one, not retrofitted.
Discussion angle
The co-investment structure as a playbook: who bears which costs and risks when deploying physical tech infrastructure at a new development, and whether this model applies beyond EV charging to other smart-building or IoT deployments Malaysian founders might pitch to property developers.
