TNB Electron Charging Stations
Grid & Network
A resilient and adaptive grid, coupled with strategic planning, is crucial to accommodate
the growing demand for BEV charging. As the adoption of electric vehicles accelerates, TNB is poised to expand its EV charging infrastructure, with
proactive measures must be taken to upgrade and expand the existing electrical plans to roll out over 200 Direct Current (DC) charge points
infrastructure. This involves investing in smart grid technologies that can efficiently
manage the increased load, optimise energy distribution, and incorporate renewable nationwide by 2025. This ambitious expansion aligns with the

supports daily commuting and promotes sustainable practices within corporate
environments.

Charging Platform
The BEV charging platform leverages geospatial technology, allowing users to reserve
charging facilities based on their location through an intuitive interface, thus optimising
the utilisation of charging infrastructure while addressing range anxiety. An overview of TNB’s Biodiversity Framework
On top of facilitating users’ charging experience, the BEV charging platform has the
potential to transform BEV into integral components of a dynamic and sustainable
energy ecosystem. Through the platform’s advanced functionalities such as
vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-load capabilities, the BEV serves as energy storage
units, contributing to grid stability and supporting energy needs during peak demand
periods.
