What does video surveillance cost?

In 2019, there were 1,500,000 video cameras in Denmark. Our calculations show that it should cost owners approximately DKK 3.75 billion annually to manage the operation of these cameras. Converted, that’s DKK 2,500 per video camera per year. Many of the costs are unknown to decision-makers.

The market expects significant growth. A conservative projection with 12% annual growth would mean 4,560,000 cameras in 2028 and a corresponding increase in operating costs.

All of these video cameras are installed with local IT equipment. This is the crucial element for the very high operating costs. Local installations consume a lot of power, are expensive to operate, make IT security difficult to control, and compliance with GDPR rules is challenging. It’s often associated with a lot of hassle when, for example, you need to use a clip from the video recordings.
