It is very hard to make an electricity powered plane engine that is as fast as the current jet engines. All you can do with electricty is just turning propellers. I think hydrogen is the only alternative clean energy that can replace jet fuel since it can burn or explode in turbines or gneinges unlike electricity?
Well technically you can make a ducted fan plane but it is highly inefficient as battery technology is still in its infant stages as well as batteries are still very heavy. Secondly Jet engines are basically high bypass turbines.. They can technically run on many different fuels such as diesel, kerosene, and propane.
