Which condo, both developed and under construction, that has provision for installation of EV chargers at individual parking lot...let's list them for everyone's knowledge.

This list can also include condo that has already agreed/ been approved for installation of EV chargers by unit owners at their own parking lots or even condo with where owner has successfully installed their own EV charger at their own lots.

Is this even possible? Currently the % of EV cars compared to ICE cars are low. When there are many EV cars, can the system handle the load?

IIRC, this condo provide 2 parking for each unit, 1 is normal parking at upper floor, and EV parking at G floor. The EV parking must be at G floor because it's a Bomba requirement.

Not sure about the Bomba requirement. FYI In Duta Park Residence, the EV charging stations are at level 9.

The EV charging requires higher power requirements , it is not easy for existing condo to apply to TNB to upgrade as well as for condo to lay new high rated power cables to each parking bay (imagine the cabling will look like- this is not those extension cable we saw but bigger one)

New development maybe they consider laying the higher grade cables to each bay…

Every condo can have 1k-2k parking bays, it does not make sense for every one to have it … like shopping mall, not every bays have it.

Therefore, sharing EV charging stations more feasible …

Honestly, i don’t want to share. I don’t have mood to monitor that the charger is in use or vacant. When I come home after work I don’t want to think, just park and plug. And I don’t want to come back down to unplug my car and move it so other ppl can use.

I think what the condo can do is provide 13A plug for the parking, and have shared fast charger on ground floor. 3kW slow charger can give you 30kW in 10 hours while you sleep. Good enough for most people daily use. And if you need to juice up fast, go for the shared DC charger.

If is slow charging plug point, usually the management will charge the owner of bay based on consumption and one time installation, will have issue neighbour leech on yours when you not around… i think ev charger can set password but not those conventional plug point…

Conventional plug if for every parking bay will also increase overall power consumption and load, management of condo also need to apply from TNB for upgrade + one time cost …

If I'm not mistaken, if EV chargers design location were approved before new bomba rules, the chargers will follow original plan.

(if condo, though, would like for example modernize or change the charges, as in redo for example with new charging power, then they need to relocate them to G floor ho ho)

my 5 year old condo says cannot install ev charger at own parking as there is no wiring built in. Then there is a risk of fire and they don't have plans to do so. Charging can only be done at level 2 with 2-3 chargers operating at 2kw...

the gomen only allowed 100k+ ev to masuk, this clearly says they not intend to 'popularize' the ev yet in Malaysia

so, i speculate the chance seeing gomen to make policy to make ev common is small

policy like to relax the local authority/bomba/tnb requirement to allow more charging station in condo, let alone ppr

Interesting tered, aside from the electrical wiring, I am more keen to know how different the fire preventive measures will be.

You may google Bomba EV charging. Bomba has outlined the requirement for EV charging station inside building, which is quite stringent.

Other than electrical wiring and fire preventive measures, there are some other things need to consider as well e.g. your property insurance.

Does your property insurer allow individual to install EV charging station? If fire break out, the damage covered by the property insurer? Or car insurance?

Also, if the property electrical infra only can support up to certain number of station, how to allocate it? First come first serve basis? Or balloting basis? You know lar, some people very kiasu, when see other people got, they also want. "Why he can get, why I cannot get?"

If the EV charging station approved before new Bomba rules, Bomba given two years to the property to comply. The new rules first started Sep 2023, means the existing property need to comply by Sep 2025, this year.

Not necessary all EV charging station must installed at G floor.
Only DC charging station need to be installed at G floor or 4 levels above G floor or 3 levels below G floor.

AC charging station can be installed at any floor, but need to comply some Bomba requirements.
