RALEIGH, N.C. -

A North Carolina utility plans to offer customers as much as $20,000 for installing solar panels on their rooftops in a program to boost green energy.

Progress Energy's offer is designed to help it comply with a state law requiring more use of renewable energy and conservation.

Rebates will be available in the fall and will help slash the cost of one of the more expensive forms of energy by 75 percent.

Progress has 71 customers in North and South Carolina who already use solar panels. They won't be eligible for the rebates.
