info interview w/ energy private investment firm

i have a phone call (informational interview) coming up with an associate at a energy-related private equity firm and was wondering if anyone could provide some insight on what types of questions would be relevant. i've had many of these types of calls in the past (with investment banking professionals), however, i want to make particular call impactful enough that i could possibly ask for a summer internship in the future. The firm typically invests in companies that provide technology related products / services to the O&G, power, and alternative energy industries. thanks
