There are several active volcanic regions across Antarctica. These present an opportunity to generate heat and electricity for settlers, similar to how this is used in Iceland. This would be very good for the natural environment and produce much less pollution than other ways of generating electricity.

If we can get a decent power supply from it then i don't think we'd have any other issues with enough electricity we can easily set up farms with artificial light so food won't be that much of a problem the hardest part would be getting the people and the funding and the first few years would be quite harsh
