What barriers do we have to overcome for (commercial) electric airplanes to become a reasonable alternative to liquid fueled airplanes?
Those are definitely some significant challenges. But what about the environmental benefits of electric airplanes compared to traditional planes?
Yes, environmental benefits are certainly one of the biggest selling points of electric airplanes. The reduction in carbon emissions from using electricity instead of liquid fuels can make a big difference over time. However, there is still much work to be done to make electric airplanes commercially viable for mainstream use.
