You can make a supersonic electric jet (particularly with lithium-air batteries), or use fuels synthesized using electricity (i.e. hydrogen). It doesn't necessarily need to be a net emitter of carbon.

ah, I've learned something here. I didn't expect a supersonic plane could fly on electricity; that's quite a feat.
