Singapore-based Kelle Energy has launched Malaysia’s first Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) mobile EV chargers. These wheeled powerbanks have a 184 kWh BESS, are capable of 60 kW DC charging, can juice up multiple EVs and are positioned as a quick, cost-effective and grid-independent alternative to permanent charging infrastructure. A solution to highway charging queues?
The company has also signed two MoUs – the first with Gotion High-Tech (Gotion) subsidiary Anhui Yijianeng Digital Technology (AYDT) to support strategic investment and business development initiatives for mobile energy solutions and BESS applications in the region, and the second with both AYDT and EV Connection (EVC) to deploy and expand mobile EV charging solutions across Malaysia.
The parties will also “work together to introduce scalable, user-centric mobile EV charging services tailored to Malaysia’s urban centres, commercial facilities, fleet operators and emerging EV demand corridors.”
Kelle Energy’s mobile EV charger technology partner is Gotion, a Chinese battery maker part-owned by the Volkswagen Group. It was recently reported that the Johor government is finalising discussions with Gotion to set up an EV battery manufacturing facility in the state.

this giant powerbank wont move by itself, it still needs a tow truck or transporter van to deliver it.
if your EV ran out of juice its easier to tow your EV to a nearby charger station.
At least it can be moved, by deploying at highway stops it helps more people during peak
Once it was delivered, there’s no need to move it back to HQ. You can always slowly charge it back nearby.
If no need to move it back to HQ, wouldnt it be better tu just install a fixed charger in the first place?
the difference is a fixed charger typically delivers only up to 7kw AC , assuming the substation isnt upgraded.
