As reported earlier, DC Handal has deployed a 200kW DC fast charger on WCE’s Assam Jawa Toll Plaza. This is the first EV charger on the new highway and DC Handal has confirmed that it is now officially open to the public.
The DC Charger is deployed at Assam Jawa Toll Plaza located at the northernmost end of Section 6 of WCE’s Selangor portion. The location is on the WCE highway’s exit towards LATAR and Jalan Kuala Selangor. To make it easier to locate the charger, DC Handal has provided direct links for Waze or Google Maps.
For this EV charging location, DC Handal has deployed a standalone 200kW Kempower DC charger with two CCS2 nozzles. According to the listing, EVs with 800V battery architecture (e.g. Audi, Porsche, Lotus, e-GMP-based Hyundai and Kia EVs) can get up to 200kW of DC fast charging. Meanwhile, other 400V based EVs can get up to a maximum of 120kW. Since this charger is configured for dynamic load sharing, the charging rate will adjust dynamically if two EVs are plugged in at the same time.
The DC charger at WCE Assam Jawa costs RM1.50 per kWh and you can activate and pay for the charging session using contactless cards such as Visa Paywave or Mastercard PayPass. Alternatively, you can also activate it via your existing EV charging apps such as JomCharge and ChargEV.
