ACO to install EV fast-charging station at HQ

ACO Group managing director Tan Pee Tee @ Tan Chang Kim:“We will leverage on our respective strengths, ACO’s vast product offerings and footprint in Malaysia and EV Connection’s strong technical know-how in EV infrastructure."

PETALING JAYA: ACO Group Bhd is collaborating with EV Connection Sdn Bhd to install a direct-current fast-charging station at ACO Group’s new headquarters in Johor Bahru as part of its initiative to tap into the green technology sector.

In a statement, it said the electric vehicle (EV) charging station, with a capacity of 180kW, is set to be one of the fastest charging speed stations in Malaysia and the first in Johor.“EV owners will soon be able to drive-in to ACO’s headquarters to charge up their vehicles at up to 180kW which takes up to 30 minutes to charge a car, as compared to alternating current charging points that take about six to 10 hours for a full charge,” it added.
