That wouldn't work. The population of Iceland is somewhere in the neighborhood of 320k people. That's the size of a large city here in the US. To do that you'd have to re-engineer the entire public works systems as well as how that heat is dispersed evenly.
Add to that the environuts that would halt the program once one tremor is felt due to the drilling.
Just because it works in one place doesn't mean it's the answer for other populations and cultures.
