These lecture notes are prepared for the course *ELEC-E8405 Electric Drives* lectured at the Aalto University, Espoo, Finland. The authors are Marko Hinkkanen, Lennart Harnefors, and Jarno Kukkola. 

The course is taught during the first autumn of a Master's program as the first course on electric machine drives. The prerequisites for the course are basics of circuit theory and basics of control engineering, in addition to fundamental mathematics and physics. We aim to update and extend the notes gradually, including selected elements from the advanced course as well.
