New Sarawak EV Charger Draws Criticism Over High Costs and Slow Speeds
English
- New Deployment: SEDC Energy and JomCharge have installed a 30kW DC EV charger at the R&R Mid Layar in Betong, Sarawak.
- Charging Specifications: The station features two CCS2 nozzles, providing a maximum of 30kW individually or 15kW each when both are in use.
- High Pricing: The service costs RM1.60 per minute. This results in an effective rate of approximately RM3.20 per kWh, making it one of the most expensive highway chargers in Malaysia despite Sarawak's low electricity tariffs.
- Performance Issues: The charging speed is considered very slow for highway requirements, particularly given the high cost.
- Comparison: While the Petros MFS Batu Kawa charger costs RM3.20 per minute, it provides significantly higher speeds (up to 200kW), offering better value than the Betong location.

- 新设施部署: SEDC Energy 与 JomCharge 在砂拉越木中 (Betong) 的 Mid Layar 服务区部署了一台 30kW 直流充电桩。
- 充电规格: 该充电桩配有两个 CCS2 插头,单口充电最高功率为 30kW,双车同时充电时每口仅为 15kW。
- 昂贵收费: 收费标准为每分钟 RM1.60,折合每度电约 RM3.20。尽管砂拉越的电费在马来西亚处于最低水平,该站点仍被视为目前全马高速公路服务区中最昂贵的充电站之一。
- 性能槽点: 考虑到其充电速度缓慢,且高速公路充电需求较高,该定价引起了广泛关注。
- 对比分析: 尽管 Petros MFS Batu Kawa 充电站收费同样为每分钟 RM3.20,但其充电速度更快(最高可达 200kW),性价比远高于此次部署的木中充电桩。
