According to this post on Arch wiki the i915 kernel module has options which result in significant power savings.
How to "pass" the following options to the i915 kernel module?
enable_fbc=1 enable_psr=1 disable_power_well=0
drivers kernel i915

Did you test them? (by putting them on yourlinux
(kernel) line in grub, ie. pressing <E> to edit it, adding them & then press <F10> to boot with those entries added...

@guiverc That's pretty cool, didn't know about that but followed instructions and the options have been loaded in. Is the correct way to set the options permanently to edit them in /etc/default/grub?

Yep - here is a reference link if you'd like more info (wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters); which includes the useful hint tosudo update-grub
to cause re-build your grub file after you've edited.
