Safari using significant battery

Hello,


I recently bought the base model 13 inch MacBook Pro 2020 and have been using it and haven't been getting the battery life out of it that is being advertised by apple. I think this might be because safari is continuously using significant battery, even when just having 1 tab open and watching a show on Netflix or a video on YouTube for instance it keeps coming up for using significant energy. is anyone else experiencing the same issue or does anyone know a fix?


Kindest regards

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
