    Electric Car and Private Security: Driving the Energy Transition Together

    Protectas is transforming its fleet to actively support the energy transition. By gradually replacing petrol and diesel vehicles with electric cars, we aim to reduce CO₂ emissions in a measurable way — without compromising speed or safety.

    Why Protectas Invests in the Electric Car

    The electric car is not a trend for Protectas — it's a strategic decision.

    Shifting our patrol fleet to electric vehicles is central to our commitment to sustainable mobility. It helps us reduce direct emissions and comply with Switzerland’s strict environmental standards.

    A real-world example: in the Copenhagen region, one of our operational sites already runs a 100% electric car fleet.

    Webfleet: Technology Supporting the Energy Transition

    Each electric car in the Protectas fleet is equipped with Webfleet, an intelligent onboard system that supports both performance and sustainable mobility:

    • Real-time driving behaviour tracking
    • Route optimisation
    • Agent coaching in safe, eco-conscious driving

    Annual goal: 5% CO₂ reduction

    This approach has made it possible:

    • 49% fewer accidents
    • 10% less CO₂
    • 72% fewer minor vehicle damages

    Electric Cars as the Future of Private Security

    At Protectas, the electric car is a pillar of our energy transition strategy.

    Less noise, lower emissions, greater efficiency — that's how we define sustainable mobility. Private security and environmental responsibility can and must go hand in hand.
