If demand could be shifted away from when it is higher than (easily produced) supply and towards when available supply is more than demand, this would be a big help. More renewables could be used by the grid, and electricity would be cheaper, because less rarely-used generating capacity would be needed. Time shifting can be achieved by real-time tariffs that follow the varying price paid by the National Grid (to balance supply and demand), as described in the paper: http://www.aldes.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/ALDElectricityRTTs215.pdf (I am down as the author, but the editor, Richard Balmer, was heavily involved.)
