What happened
ChargeSini added 8 DC charge bays at MyTown Shopping Centre's B1 basement car park (Pillar E, Row 22): two 60kW and two 40kW units, each fitted with two CCS2 nozzles. Pricing is RM1.29 per kWh on the 60kW units and RM1.19 per kWh on the 40kW units, with a RM5.00 minimum and a 50% discount via promo code MYTOWN50 on 26-27 September only. Chargers are reserved and activated in the ChargeSini app, and a RM1.00 per 5-minute High Occupancy Fee applies 30 minutes after charging ends, but only when more than 50% of bays are occupied. The older B2 chargers are pricier: RM1.49 per kWh for 40kW DC and RM1.30 per kWh for 22kW AC.
Why it matters
For this audience the direct impact is close to nil: no AI, agent, developer-tooling, or database content, and no funding or policy change. The only transferable detail is the occupancy-conditional idle fee (RM1.00 per 5 minutes, triggered only when over 50% of bays are in use), a demand-management pattern worth copying if you build any app that books scarce physical resources. Practical EV-driver note: the new B1 bays undercut the same mall's B2 chargers by RM0.20-RM0.30 per kWh, and the MYTOWN50 discount is limited to 26-27 September.
Discussion angle
Is a conditional idle fee that only bills when the site is over 50% occupied a smarter model for shared-resource booking apps than a flat penalty - and what would explain pricing the newer B1 chargers RM0.20-RM0.30 per kWh below the older B2 ones in the same building?
