Gentari Rolls Out 18 AC Charging Points At Four Malls In Johor Bahru

Gentari has recently rolled-out 18 new charging points at four locations in Johor Bahru, bringing it closer to its goal of having 400 EV chargers by 2023. Because all four sites are well situated inside of Johor's largest malls, they are the ideal destination charging stations for shoppers driving electric vehicles.

This charger is very easily accessible but does not have any shading unfortunately. The charging rate for this location is fixed at RM0.17/min.

The Paradigm Mall, which is situated on Jalan Skudai, would be the second location housing six charging stations—three 7kW and three 22kW AC chargers. These charging stations can be found in the multi-story parking area. Users would be charged RM0.13/min for usage of the 7kW charger and RM0.18/kW for the 22kW units.

Three 11kW AC chargers would be available at the parking area of the third location, Pelangi Leisure Mall on Jalan Tebrau. The charging rate for the AC chargers would be fixed at RM0.17/min.
