What happened
JomCharge has activated a 100kW DC charger at McDonald's Pandan Mewah (opposite Ampang Hospital), using a standalone Kempower unit with two CCS2 nozzles that hard-split to 50kW each regardless of whether one or two EVs are plugged in. Standard pricing is RM1.40/kWh, with a 50% promo (RM0.70/kWh) on 31 July–1 August 2026, stackable with JomCharge Elite/Platinum memberships. The charger can be activated via JomCharge, Gentari Go, or ChargEV apps, with upcoming locations at McDonald's Yong Peng and Bandar Sri Damansara.
Why it matters
For founders exploring Malaysia's EV ecosystem, the multi-app activation (JomCharge, Gentari Go, ChargEV) signals interoperability across charging networks—relevant if you're building payment, booking, or fleet services that need to integrate with multiple charger APIs. The hard 50kW split per nozzle is a concrete UX detail worth knowing if building EV routing or charger-discovery tools.
Discussion angle
The fact that one charger is activatable through three different apps (JomCharge, Gentari Go, ChargEV) suggests Malaysia's EV charging ecosystem is converging on shared access rather than walled gardens—worth discussing whether this creates opportunities or constraints for third-party apps.
