Marking The Start Of An Electrified Malaysia, Shell And Porsche Inaugurates Their HPC Station

Shell and Porsche Asia Pacific have officially started the operations of a high-performance charging (HPC) station in Tangkak, Johor.

This will be the first HPC infrastructure electric vehicles (EV) network in Southeast Asia and Shell’s first cross-country EV infrastructure in the region. 

It marks the start of the construction of 12 charge points at six Shell stations strategically located along Malaysia’s North-South highway.

As such, later this year customers will be able to charge their EVs quickly along the North South Highway in Malaysia for a reliable and seamless drive from Singapore through Malaysia to Thailand.

“Decarbonisation is a global challenge that requires broad-reaching, multi-faceted solutions. Our partnership with Porsche in meeting the needs of EV customers today is an important initiative under our Powering Progress strategy to achieve our goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. Together with Porsche, we'll be working to improve the EV charging experience along a key travel artery connecting three countries in the region,” expressed, Shell’s senior vice president of mobility – east, Amr Adel.

Notably, the six selected Shell stations in Malaysia will be equipped with 180kW direct-current (DC) chargers, offering the fastest charging rate across Malaysia and later right up to Bangkok, Thailand.

The new 180kW high-performance chargers are capable of charging EVs at super-fast speeds, which in turn translates to shorter waiting times in between charges. 

For instance, the Porsche Taycan can be charged from zero to 80 percent battery capacity in around 30 minutes, providing up to 390 km (WLTP2) of extra travel distance.

Apart from aiding all EV customers to reduce charging time, this infrastructure also supports online booking and payment via an integrated platform.

Meaning, all EV customers will be able to use the HPC Network via a pay-per-use service or an exclusive membership plan by making reservations through the ParkEasy app.

Interestingly, the reservation concept which comes with an RM 4 booking fee allows all EV customers a 60-minute leeway to get to their selected stations.

Additionally, the charging bays at the HPC stations come with a sensor gate that recognizes the vehicles which have made prior bookings through the said app. 

On top of that, it also has a function that notifies the customers of availability the moment a charging bay is free of use in cases where they are all fully booked, in other words, a queuing system.

Porsche Asia Pacific’s director of new business fields, Dr Henrik Dreier, concluded, “At Porsche, we are committed to driving the future of mobility in South East Asia, as we pursue a carbon neutral balance sheet across our entire value chain by the year 2030. Our partnership with Shell is a result of well-aligned sustainability objectives and will further supplement our range of charging solutions for electric vehicle owners, with specific benefits accorded to Porsche owners. With this new high performance charging network, we are making what was once a vision of long-distance, cross-border emissions-free travel, now a reality.”
