Take ten trillion tonnes of ice, heat one kelvin. Takes 41.8EJ.
The fissioning of every atom in a kilogram of Pu239 gives you 77TJ (non-neutronic).
So that would be 543 tonnes of plutonium.

So to raise ten trillion tonnes of ice from 149K up to 273K would take approximately 67 kilotonnes of Pu239.

Mind, that's calculated with no losses, but then, I'm no engineer.
