What happened
TNB Electron launched its largest EV charging site at Wisma TNB Seberang Jaya, Perai, with 480kW shared across 8 bays using a TELD DC Charger solution. Each nozzle is rated at 250A, capping 400V EVs at 100kW and 800V EVs at 200kW. Charging costs RM1.50/kWh via tap-to-pay at a JuiceUP terminal with no app required, with free charging offered on 15 August 2026.
Why it matters
Minimal direct impact for this audience. The no-app, tap-to-pay payment flow via JuiceUP is the only mildly interesting infrastructure detail for anyone exploring card-based payments at unattended kiosks in Malaysia, but there is nothing here that requires a builder to change what they ship.
Discussion angle
Brief mention only: the tap-to-pay kiosk model (no app, card-only) as a design pattern for unattended Malaysian infrastructure — but not worth more than a minute unless someone in the group is building EV or kiosk payment systems.
