Energy cannot be created or destroyed it can only change form...batteries still require charging and the cost to fully charge an electric airplane isn’t going to differ much from that of a gasoline powered one in terms of unit cost/hour of flight. Overall maintenance should be reduced and emissions are nil. The trade off is not knowing the effective life of the very heavy batteries or how they will alter flight characteristics...
