Delta's AC charger enables the EV owners to fully charge their vehicles within four hours. In addition, Delta is cooperating with FEN, Malaysia's first commercial EV charging service provider, in the installation of 20 EV charging stations in major car dealership locations, shopping malls, and public facilities in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Malacca and Johor Bahru to provide EV owners free and convenient charging services.

FEN's co-operation with Delta will enable Tan Chong Motor Holdings, one of the region's largest automobile manufacturing and sales companies, to provide a comprehensive EV dealership platform that offers green vehicles and EV charging units as car accessories and supports public charging infrastructure for the development of eco-transportation in Malaysia for years to come.

In 2013, Delta achieved considerable results in the global EV charging market, including a quick charging solution installed at Hong Kong International Airport, DC quick chargers and site management system (SMS) installations for a major utility company in Thailand, EV charging stations at Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan and a DC quick charging solution in Norway.
