Energy Plus is offering Delta Skymiles FF miles each month, or, alternatively, Continental OnePass FF miles, if you change your electric supplier from the default (eg CL&P) to them. They also say they'll discount the elec rate by 15%.
Once you sign up, you get a bonus miles (3000 for OnePass, 3000 for SkyMiles), plus double points each month, based on the "supplier-portion" of the electric bill.
I did this (under Skymiles) several months ago, and have received both my bonus and several hundred monthly points posted. Can't really tell if the elec is actually discounted -- those CL&P bills are so detailed and convoluted I just throw them in a drawer!
Here's the link to the OnePass deal. Note that, if you currently have a Chase Continental MC or ATM card, you get a bigger bonus (4000 mi), and more miles each month (3x).

Any info as to the difference in rates would be helpful!

I had to go back to this winter to find a bill from before I switched to Energy Plus. But it does seem as I'm paying a lower rate for Generation ("Supplier") -- 10.55 c/Kwhr vs 12.22 c/Kwhr, about 14% less. I can't vouch for CL&P's current rates tho, but I doubt it has dropped since March. I would also note that Delivery, which is always billed by CL&P, has gone UP by 18%.

I have this Electric Supplier through US airways and it is available in Texas. Texas Direct Energy Link 5,000 Bonus Miles and 1 Mile for Every 2 Dollars Spent. Average cost is 9.2cents for 2,000 kilowatts usage so pretty darn good.
