Will we even see commercial electric planes in our lifetime?
From what I know, what’s stopping it from becoming commercialized(?) is limitation of current generation battery. TBH I’m not an expert on this subject.

So yeah. They exist, but because batteries currently lack the power density, I don’t know if we’ll ever see them like modern air travel.
Power density is THE problem. FF sucks but it’s hard to beat it for the density.
It is more likely IMHO that you’ll see private aviation be able to use all electric for things like short distances, but use sustainable fuels for long haul flights
