Default Are 100% electric ultralights around?

The University of Stuttgart is currently working on a motorglider
powered by a fuel cell ("Hydrogenius"). Which is not exactly 100%
electric, but performs a lot better than the solar powered motorglider
that was developed a couple of years ago ("Icaré 2"). First flight is
due around 2010-2012.
