Original equipment battery from Apple? If yes, contact Apple. If not, contact the business that sold or installed it.

The most likely causes include: (1) Some process is really using a lot of CPU (see Activity Monitor and/or click on the battery icon to see if any apps are reported there), (2) The battery you bought is faulty.
