Airbus has now put their E-fan plans on their website. Much more at the link.
The Airbus Group Innovations research and technology network is leading a company-wide electric aircraft roadmap. This strategy outlines a step-by-step approach for Airbus Group’s short-, medium- and long-term development of electric planes.

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
