	2021	2020	Change
Revenue	EUR 132.4 million	EUR 111.5 million	18.7 %
Adjusted EBITDA*	EUR 34.4 million	EUR 28.5 million	20.7 %

In January 2021, the Group generated revenue of EUR 132.4 million, which is 18.7 % more compared to a respective period of 2020 (EUR 111.5 million). The Group's revenue mainly increased as a result of higher revenue from electricity and gas distribution due to higher distributed volumes in Networks segment as well as higher revenue from electricity and gas sales to business customers in Customers & Solutions segment. Both effects were mostly related to colder weather conditions compared to unusually warm January in 2020.

The adjusted EBITDA in January 2021 was equal to EUR 34.4 million, i.e. 20.7 % more compared to a respective period of 2020 (EUR 28.5 million). The increase was mainly driven by better result of Customers & Solutions segment due to a successful transaction of LNG cargo sale by effectively exploiting price changes in the market as well as positive impact in Green Generation segment from Kaunas CHP activities as the plant was launched in August 2020. Also adjusted EBITDA in Networks segment grew due to higher distributed volumes of electricity and gas due to colder weather conditions.
