From my understanding the energies involved are so large that once you have that technology you‘d be more likely to extinguish all life than do any good. Significant earthquakes move landmasses by half a meter or so, and they influence earth rotation and inclination measurably. If that kinda energy was coupled to our atmosphere thermally you‘d have a global killer very quickly. A 9.0 quake is 476M tons of TNT and a 9.5 one would be 2682M tons - I wouldn‘t mess with that ;).
