I had a bit of a look, I found one flight school that had committed to buying some electric aircraft and had apparently trialed them before. No real indication of how it works practically. Bearing in mind that a Tesla battery pack weighs 500kg (1200lb) or so. Changing them over wouldn't be a simple operation.

They have electric planes, and they have flight schools, but whether the two actually intersect or not isn't immediately clear.
