Gentari And Lotus Cars Agree To Collaborate On Green Mobility Infrastructure
Clean energy solutions provider, Gentari Sdn Bhd, via its wholly-owned subsidiary Gentari Green Mobility Sdn Bhd, has agreed with Lotus Cars Malaysia (LCM)to explore a collaboration on the deployment of green mobility infrastructure. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed at the launch of the Lotus Eletre by Gentari Chief Green Mobility Officer, Shah Yang Razalli and Lotus Cars Malaysia General Manager, Tengku Ezan Ley.
Over a period of 2 years, Gentari will partner with LCM to explore collaborations in electric vehicle charging infrastructure at LCM’s facilities, as well as in public areas. This partnership will also assess EV charging packages for owners of Lotus EVs. Other potential collaborations targeted for exploration include the introduction of Zero Emission Vehicle Fleet solutions in Malaysia, renewable energy deployment at LCM’s facilities and a digital platform with LCM.
“At Gentari, we are working with like-minded partners across all segments of transportation in driving towards sustainable mobility. Today, we are partnering with Lotus Cars Malaysia to make it easier for drivers of its high-performance cars to also reduce their carbon footprint with every kilometre travelled. This is part of our purpose in solving the world’s most pressing sustainable energy needs, to change how we live today, in securing a better future,” said Shah Yang Razalli.
“This collaboration will allow us to better support our Lotus EV customers starting with the all-electric Eletre Hyper-SUV. Enhancing connectivity to Gentari’s fast-growing EV charging network will help increase convenience for our customers so they can effectively plan their trips and reduce range anxiety,” added Tengku Ezan Ley.
Since its introduction in June 2022, Gentari has made rapid progress in expanding its green mobility network. Currently, Gentari through its affiliated entities, has deployed more than 150 charging points across 35 locations in Malaysia and over 160 charging points in India.
With a mission to be Asia Pacific’s preferred green mobility solutions provider, Gentari is targeting to capture a 10% market share (approximately 25,000 charging points based on current estimates) across key markets in Asia Pacific by 2030. In the mid-term, Gentari aims to install 9,000 public charging points by 2026, with an anchored presence in Malaysia and India.
