Good suggestion.

Charge for spot, charge per charging, and also charge how long the slot is occupied. Confirm no one will try to abuse.

Put it this way, should charge for parking and charging. Maybe charge premium for that parking?

I am not a EV driver .but its a free country no? It's up to the owner of the parking.

EV charging spots in shopping malls and commercial parking should be placed as far as reasonable.

This is beneficial to EV owners too. Because people wont simpy go and park over there. You will only park there if you really need to charge

good for parking owner, ie, municipal council, but not good for businesses.
a while bck, UK has this problem where they start to increase parking fees, & charge hefty parking fines in busy area.
usually that area us busy until people park illegally.
because of the fines, & fees less people choose the visit & do their shopping elsewhere.
municipal happy cuz they earn some "short change' through fines, but businesses complained drop in traffic.

it's a bit like sawing your ship for material to build a boat, & calling it a win

i dont really like the idea of EV charger in shopping mall.

if i dont hav charger at home, & rely on going to mall to charge, i cant really count on it because what if it's occupied when i'm there?
that means i should make sure my EV have at least 50-60% battery even if going to nearby mall.
but if i'm already on50-60% charge, not that much more that i can top up.
depending on on charger speed, meaning it can be done charging pretty quickly.
meaning i hav to time my stay in the mall, cuz idle charge is expensive AF, & it's also courtesy to vacant the spot once your car is fully charged.
that means i i hav to go bck to parking, circle around & find regular parking.
i can arrive early to get EV charger spot, but by the time i need to moved my car, already many shoppers & regular parking spot might be hard to come by.

if i dont rely on mall EV charger, usually, the most stresful part of mall visit on weekends/holidays, or going event/expo is finding parking.
after that roam free, spend however much time i like in the mall.
i dont know, maybe for me, charging EV in mall is an anxiety inducing activity.

1. Why do you need to have 50-60% battery before you go charge? You can go when you only left 20%. How far is the mall you want to go?

2. How long you want to do your shopping? 2 hours not enough?

3. Tell me you don't have EV without telling me you don't have EV.

dont put DC charger on heavy traffic commercial area la. underutilized parking space dont make much sense.
just put large quantity of AC chargers but allow everyone to park there.

Window shopping to kill time scenario: If ur car left 20%, u go mall, select AC charging, that will take around 4-6 hours charging, depend on the charger speed. You dont need to fight parking with ICE car.

Grocery je scenario: If ur car left 20%, u go mall, select DC charging. less than an hour finish charge. just ngam ngam u finish grocery. No need spend time finding parking.

You dont pump when your petrol still at 50-60%. Same goes with battery. what would you go charge at 50-60%?

Dont think so much, just enjoy it. You will know what to do when you have it.

U want charging go somewhere else but not the business area. Or else the parking fee cant even cover the rental.

i'm not generalizing, i'm just sharing a me problem.
maybe i hav anxiety.
sometimes weekends dating with wife, no plan 1.
it's not uncommon that might spend the whole day there.
shopping + attend gathering/expo/event + movie + lunch + dinner
sometimes wife suka2, for example, "lets go genting eat xxxxxxx".
that anxiety comes from time management.
going for movie for example, u need to commit 2-3 hours there.
buy ticket also have to find slot that dont clash with full charge.

i also feel that it's common courtesy that if u're using public charger, u shoud charge fast, & GTFO when reach 9x%.
it's not just about paying idle fees, but also sharing infra with people

cuz it's a shared infra & other people also want to use.
occupying a charge slot, even if u dont mind paying for idle charge, is like those assholes that go to petrol station, spend 2m to pump, then proceed to shop/go toilet for half an hour.
if u're gonna go that, at least move your car to proper parking space & free up the pump.
same principle wit public charger.

KLCC, Pavillion KL and TRX tak boleh pergi with car. Not only expensive like fuarck, find exit and parking space also is a nightmare. Go with LRT or MRT better.
