What happened

JomCharge launched a standalone 100kW Kempower DC charger with two CCS2 nozzles at McDonald’s Section 3 Shah Alam, priced at RM1.40 per kWh and activatable via JomCharge, ChargEV, and Gentari Go. JomCharge Elite and Platinum members get 10% and 25% off respectively, and a 31 October–1 November 2026 launch promo cuts the rate to RM0.70 per kWh, stackable with membership discounts.

Why it matters

This is mainly useful if you drive an EV in the Klang Valley: the concrete decision is whether to use the RM0.70/kWh promo this weekend or compare the normal RM1.40/kWh rate against alternatives. For builders, the only notable detail is that one charger is accessible through three separate apps, which highlights local EV charging/payment fragmentation rather than a developer-tooling change.

Discussion angle

The charger works through JomCharge, ChargEV, and Gentari Go, with stackable membership discounts—worth discussing whether cross-app activation reduces friction or adds confusion, and whether that fragmentation creates a practical local payments/roaming opportunity.
