E.g. an i7 draws 65W at idle, or about 1.5kWh/day

I don't know which chip you're talking about but a 12900K idles at ten watts.

He is talking about an i7 on an older node, since he is comparing the lower production cost of older nodes with their higher usage cost (electricity). I don't know what intel generation would correspond to 32nm, but that was the node discussed.

That would be the venerable 2600K of Sandy Bridge. It idled at five watts.
