Battery drains drastically on MacOS Sonoma even when Shut Down

Hi, I recently updated to MacOS Sonoma, everything was fine and I loved the new look and feel, I then put it on sleep mode like usual and left it overnight. The next day, the battery was completely drained. I thought this issue might be because the Mac was in sleep mode, so I charged it halfway and then shut it down. The next day the battery was completely drained yet again. This has never happened before, not even before I upgraded to Sonoma from Ventura. Can someone please clarify why this is happening?

Hi, so I charged my Mac to 80%, shut it down, came back, and started it 3 hours later and the battery has drained 9%. I have noticed one new feature whenever the Mac starts, the lock screen directly pops up and I don't get the Apple booting up screen anymore, could the issue be related to that? Because this has never happened before in previous upgrades.
