PETALING JAYA, SUNWAY MENTARI, KLANG VALLEY, SUNWAY MAS, AMAN SURIA, KUALA LUMPUR, 6 OCTOBER 2026 —
Petaling Jaya Council Installs Four DC Fast Chargers at Sunway Mentari as EV Infrastructure Expands in Klang Valley
The Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) has deployed four DC fast-charging bays at Mr DIY in Sunway Mentari, marking the latest expansion of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in the Klang Valley under its partnership with charge point operator Carput Zap Network Sdn Bhd.
The move aligns with Malaysia’s push to accelerate EV adoption, with the new chargers—equipped with two CCS2 nozzles each—positioned at street level to serve passing drivers. The site also features standees for contactless card terminals, allowing EV owners to initiate charging via credit or debit cards without relying on a mobile app. A construction permit notice confirms Carput Zap as the operator of the facility.
The deployment follows a memorandum of understanding signed in June 2025 between MBPJ, JomCharge (EV Connection), and Carput Zap to roll out EV charging stations across Petaling Jaya under the MBPJ Green Mobility Partnership. Additional charging sites under the initiative have been identified at Sunway Mas and Aman Suria, though no official launch dates have been announced.
The chargers at Sunway Mentari use ChargeDot DC Chargers, similar to those deployed in Kuala Lumpur under the JomCharge x DBKL collaboration.
The expansion comes as EV registrations in Malaysia rise, increasing demand for accessible charging infrastructure. The MBPJ initiative supports the national Net Zero 2050 target by reducing carbon emissions through improved EV accessibility in urban areas. The council’s partnership with private operators reflects a broader trend among Malaysian local authorities to leverage public-private collaborations to meet sustainability goals.
No immediate response from MBPJ or Carput Zap was available at the time of publication. The next phase of the Green Mobility Partnership will likely focus on scaling the network across additional high-traffic locations in Petaling Jaya.
