Proton New Energy Technology, the company behind the eMAS electric cars, has hinted at plans to develop its own branded DC chargers for public use. According to Salawati Mohd Yusoff, Pro-NET's chief branding officer, these chargers may be introduced later this year. This comes in response to a question on whether Proton is planning to contribute to increasing the number of charging stations in the country, and if there are any intentions to create its own charging station ecosystem.
Salawati stated that the company is looking forward to something "special" this year, and added that this development is imminent, as she mentioned "soon ... within this year". The company has already invested RM40 million to develop its telematics service provider (TSP) ecosystem and RM4 million into an integrated live charging map.
Pro-NET also ensures that all its dealership outlets have charging stations and collaborates with other charge point operators (CPOs) for condominiums. The information was shared during a podcast episode, with the disclaimer that it is "brought to you by Pro-NET".
