In general adding heat to the earth doesn’t really matter, because it’s constantly radiating to space. The sun shines adding a ton of heat all the time, and the same amount radiates out. Running some more power plants isn’t going to compete with the amount of energy we’re getting from the sun. The problem comes if you add an insulator (greenhouse gas) that raises the equilibrium temperature.
