CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Duke Energy Corp. eliminated 1,900 positions in its latest round of job reductions, largely through voluntary buyouts but with some involuntary layoffs included.

That is more than was cut even after Charlotte-based Duke bought Progress Energy Inc. in 2012. After that deal closed in July 2012, Duke eliminated about 1,100 positions. The latest headcount reduction appears to be the largest — at least in actual numbers — in the company’s history.

The company has said the recent job cuts were made to control costs for customers and to get employment at appropriate levels for the demands of its rapidly transforming business.
