In the late 1940's to early 1950's what technology was available that could melt a LOT of ice?

In my story I've devised lore where Greenland becomes a US territory, and they begin populating the region. It initially just served as the hub for numerous military bases and airbases, but eventually as the machinery thawed out the ice of the island more people began to come in.

I was wondering what technology was available at the time that could melt ice. It could be far-fetched as well, since the government is in play and they'd most likely have access to more outlandish gear.
