Under load the M1 uses significantly less power than any current AMD or Intel CPU.
I'm pretty sure the M1 would last longer than your T470 on both batteries (95Wh + 75Wh).
That's not much, but it's not the 2x-4x more efficient it'd need to compensate for the smaller battery.
Only for idle, browsing, video en/decoding, etc will you see significant improvements. For developers, the M1 is close, but not perfect.
