    Reduce Emissions and Costs with Smart Surveillance Cameras

    Many Swiss businesses, including SMEs, are looking to reduce their energy consumption and CO₂ footprint. What many don’t realize is that their security system—especially modern surveillance cameras—can help.

    Why Upgrade Your Surveillance Cameras?

    A modern surveillance camera system allows remote alarm verification, helping to avoid unnecessary on-site patrols. This leads to cost savings and a reduction in CO₂ emissions from vehicle trips.

    For small businesses, this reduces expenses caused by false alarms. For larger organizations, combining security surveillance cameras with access control enhances overall security while supporting traceability and regulatory compliance.

    Traditional vs. Modern Surveillance Cameras

    Feature     Traditional System Modern System
    Energy consumption High Low (energy-efficient cameras)
    CO₂ emissions Frequent patrols Fewer trips, lower emissions
    Cloud integration No Yes, no energy-intensive server rooms

     

    Case Study: Replacing Physical Patrols with Remote Monitoring

    A logistics client located in a remote area relied on regular physical patrols. Our security officers visited the site to manually inspect the premises.

    We suggested replacing these rounds with remote security video surveillance from our control center. With a network of surveillance cameras covering the entire perimeter, our operators could virtually monitor the site without dispatching a patrol. The security level remained unchanged—but CO₂ emissions were significantly reduced.

    Additional Tangible Benefits

    • Energy savings through the replacement of outdated cameras with energy-efficient models
    • Remote monitoring without the need for on-site server rooms, thanks to cloud solutions
    • Fewer false alarms thanks to visual verification supporting the alarm system

    In Summary

    Upgrading your surveillance cameras enables you to:

    • Reduce your energy consumption
    • Lower your CO₂ emissions
    • Optimize your security system with a more reliable and sustainable solution
