The FPGA will have higher static power (running all the overheads) but probably lower dynamic power for the same design. 40 nm is old at this point for high-performance chips.

The static power might also depend on whether the FPGA is an SRAM type or a floating-gate type, I'd think. Does Lattice have any parts fabbed in relatively new processes?
You're right. Pretty much everything is SRAM now, though. Even the MAX 10 is an SRAM FPGA with a flash-backed storage memory.
