Microsoft screwed the pooch on this one.
Power management settings are binary values in the registry and Group Policy
doesnt work with binary values so you can't use GPO to control power
management settings.
What you can do is change the permissions on the registry keys via GPO which
will allow normal users to change the power settings:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Controls
Folder\Power Cfg
