Disclaimer: have never touched Infra

I would:

1) Understand why Infra as an asset class (vs PE, etc.)

2) Understand to some extent how infra modelling and financials can differ from general corporates (PPAs, regulatory ROE)

3) Understand market trends in the infra space (before COVID anyway - things like renewables, privatisation of the sector)

You have a few infra threads around on WSO - please search for those.
