Natural Gas Trading - Switzerland

I am about to interview with an energy trading firm based in Switzerland for a natural gas trading role covering Europe. I have quantish background and experience at a bulge bracket investment bank in structuring.

The interview is next week and I would appreciate any hints regarding the peculiarities of natural gas trading, as I am not very familiar with it. It is a junior role so that shouldn't be an obstacle, but I would like to show interest in the field.

If you had couple of days, what would you read to revise for the interview? Based on the job spec, I expect it to have focus on market analysis and scheduling. It's more focused on operations, as that seems how they recruit for the entry level.. Also coding experience is required.

Any suggestions welcome! Keep in mind I won't have time to order books so only content available online (including ebooks) can be considered..
