Ubuntu 19.04 high power consumption with intel integrated graphics

Aero 17 laptop w/ 9750H processor, nvidia gtx 1660ti, 1080P 144hz monitor

Windows 10 reports 8 hours of battery life Ubuntu 19.04 reports 2 hours

In Ubuntu 19.04, reporting sky-high 30-40 watt discharge at idle with integrated graphics.

Tested: kernel 5.0.x vs. 5.1.x

Tested: Brightness to lowest setting

Tested: 144hz vs 60hz refresh

Tested: Airplane mode

Tested: powertop --auto-tune

Still consistently between 30-40 watt discharge at idle

Here is the kicker... if I switch to nvidia graphics via prime-select, the power consumption drops to 16-22watts at idle. Almost seems like the high power consumption lies with intel integrated graphics, but that sounds a bit crazy.

I tried to disable the nvidia graphics card in the bios, but doesn't seem to be an option in the bios interface.

Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.
