EVCC™ Pedas RSA: A Platinum Benchmark for Roadside Development on the PLUS Expressway

The upcoming EVCC™ Pedas RSA represents a new milestone in Malaysia’s highway infrastructure — the nation’s first Platinum Rated GreenRE Rest Service Area (RSA), purpose-built to integrate sustainable mobility, lifestyle retail, and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles.

Strategically located at KM241 Southbound along the PLUS Expressway, EVCC™ Pedas RSA is envisioned as the flagship EV Hub of the PLUS corridor, transforming the traditional rest stop into a modern roadside destination.

Redefining the Roadside Experience

Designed with a circular layout surrounding a central car park, EVCC™ Pedas RSA introduces a mall-like environment within a highway setting. Travelers will enjoy a curated mix of food & beverage offerings, convenience retail, and three dedicated drive-thru outlets for quick service.

The development places strong emphasis on placemaking. Beyond serving highway users, EVCC™ Pedas RSA is positioned as a destination for nearby communities and higher-learning institutions, creating a vibrant ecosystem that blends mobility, commerce, and leisure.

ESG Leadership and Green Innovation

EVCC™ Pedas RSA is a showcase of sustainable design and ESG alignment.

Key features include:

• Platinum GreenRE certification, the highest sustainability rating.

• A 1.8MWp solar BIPV roof generating renewable energy.

• Rainwater harvesting systems for efficient resource management.

• Low-carbon construction methods in line with the Dasar Lebuhraya Hijau (Green Highway Policy).

This makes Pedas RSA a reference point for future ESG-aligned roadside development nationwide.

Anchoring the EV Hub of PLUS Expressway

The facility is designed to meet Malaysia’s growing demand for electric mobility. EVCC™ Pedas RSA will feature:

• Tesla Superchargers

• Gentari High-Power Charging bays

• A seamless integration of EV infrastructure into the central car park loop

By combining fast charging with lifestyle amenities, EVCC™ Pedas RSA ensures long-distance EV travel along PLUS is both practical and future-ready.

Catalyzing Local Growth

More than a rest stop, EVCC™ Pedas RSA contributes directly to regional economic development in Rembau. It enhances land value, creates new employment opportunities, and strengthens tourism linkages — ensuring that infrastructure growth delivers tangible benefits to local communities.

A Model for the Future

EVCC™ Pedas RSA demonstrates how rest service areas can evolve into world-class mobility hubs, aligning with Malaysia’s ESG commitments and the government’s EV adoption agenda for 2030. It is the first in a network of EVCC™ projects that will redefine roadside development across the country.

The EVCC™ Pedas RSA is scheduled to open by the end of Q1 2026.
