I run a lot of small form factor (SFF) machines including NUCs, Minisforums, and a Mac Studio.
At idle, they aren't loud or consuming much electricity compared to sleep/shutdown.
Fruit co devices in particular are extremely efficient; the Studio is rated at 6W idle, 145W max consumption (cf. https://support.apple.com/en-us/102027 )
