Market Impact
KUALA LUMPUR — Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s (TNB) EV charging unit, TNB Electron, has commissioned a 120kW direct-current (DC) fast charger at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Seri Austin, Johor Bahru, expanding its network beyond its largest site in Penang.
The new charger, located at the McDonald’s Seri Austin drive-thru, offers a convenient spot for electric vehicle (EV) drivers to charge while dining. TNB Electron is currently offering complimentary charging for a limited period as part of the launch.
The standalone charger features two CCS2 nozzles and operates at a rate of RM1.50 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). Users can activate the charger via a JuiceUP card terminal using a credit or debit card, without requiring an app.
During an operational testing phase, TNB Electron is providing free EV charging for one day only at the new location. The complimentary service will be available on Saturday, 15 August 2026, from 12:00am to 11:59pm.
Details not yet available on the total number of chargers deployed or future expansion plans at other McDonald’s outlets in Malaysia.
The initiative aligns with Malaysia’s push to accelerate EV adoption and expand charging infrastructure nationwide. Industry observers note that convenient charging locations, such as retail outlets, are key to supporting long-term EV growth.
