I think this is related to indexing for Finder app. When your resources are idle it automatically indexes all the files in your Mac. It happened twice to my MacBook Pro(15" 2018) when I upgraded to Big Sur and two months after that. But Apple engineers will know better than me(the details)
Update:
After closing recents window it stopped consuming so much power. I guess I was wrong.
