Pos Malaysia and Yinson GreenTech to launch chargEV

Pos Malaysia Berhad, Malaysia’s leading postal and parcel service provider, has announced its strategic partnership with Yinson GreenTech (YGT) for the launch of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations powered by chargEV.

This collaboration demonstrates Pos Malaysia‘s commitment to advancing sustainable mobility solutions and expanding access to sustainable energy sources.

EV charging stations at Pos Malaysia post offices

Pos Malaysia revealed that the EV charging stations are now operational from 7 am to 11 pm daily at six selected post offices across the country, including Shah Alam, Ipoh, Melaka, Seremban, Alor Setar, and Johor Bahru.

These charging stations will be installed in phases, with plans to expand to additional post offices to ensure greater accessibility for EV owners, considering the growing number of electric vehicles in Malaysia.

Each charging outlet is equipped with a 40 kW DC charger featuring two CCS2-type nozzles for fast charging. Depending on the EV model, charging up to 80 per cent capacity will take approximately 60 to 90 minutes.

Pos Malaysia aims to provide EV users with an optimal charging experience, offering efficient and reliable charging performance through the chargEV chargers.

Pos Malaysia’s sustainability initiatives

In line with its commitment to environmental stewardship and recent net-zero goals, Pos Malaysia has deployed over 40 e-Bikes for mail and parcel deliveries in the Klang Valley, operating with zero carbon emissions.

By the end of 2023, the company plans to have a combination of more than 200 e-Bikes and 140 e-Vans across Peninsular Malaysia, further promoting sustainable last-mile logistics.

Charles Brewer, the Group Chief Executive Officer of Pos Malaysia Berhad, expressed the company’s dedication to integrating sustainability into all aspects of its operations. He emphasized the significance of the partnership with Yinson in driving positive change in sustainable transportation, reducing range anxiety for EV users, and contributing to a greener future for Malaysia.

YGT’s Chief Executive Officer, Eirik Barclay, highlighted the partnership’s benefits for EV users, offering them a convenient and seamless charging experience. The chargEV stations at Pos Malaysia outlets also present an opportunity for users to explore the company’s diverse range of offerings while charging their vehicles.

Pos Malaysia’s collaboration with Yinson GreenTech to introduce chargEV-powered EV charging stations at selected post offices is a significant step toward a more sustainable future. The company’s commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and its participation in sustainability programs like the UN Global Compact and IPC’s Sustainability Measurement and Management System further solidify its dedication to environmental responsibility.
