Be genuinely interested in engaging in this area of work (i.e., climate and energy policy).

Try to understand the overall context surrounding organisation as best you can - read their annual reports, research the work that they do, and see if they've been mentioned in the news recently. And don't underestimate the value of your previous experiences, even if they don't seem relevant at first glance.

Research the work of the agency - in particular the three schemes the agency administers (National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (NGER), Emission Reduction Fund (ERF), Renewable Energy Target (RET)).
