Abstract

The adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is increasingly seen as a critical step toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainability in transportation. In Malaysia, the rise of EVs is accompanied by the development of a supporting infrastructure, particularly electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS). This paper explores the trends in the allocation of EV charging stations and the uptake of EVs in Malaysia, assessing the relationship between these factors and the future prospects for EV adoption. Using statistical data, this study aims to provide insights into the current state of EV infrastructure and highlight the challenges and opportunities for expansion. The paper also investigates government policies, technological advancements, and societal attitudes that impact the growth of EVs in Malaysia.

Keywords
