On the banks of the Ohio River, just west of Pittsburgh, workers make steel tubes for giant utility-scale solar panels at a former Bethlehem Steel plant in Leetsdale. During World War II, the steel produced here would go on to be used in the production of tank landing ships. The facility today is home to JM Steel, and — unlike the sooty shop floor of its predecessor — this plant is clean.
