Path in the GPO console
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Power Management\Notification Settings Description
This policy setting turns off the user notification when the battery capacity remaining equals the low battery notification level. If you enable this policy setting, Windows shows a notification when the battery capacity remaining equals the low battery notification level. To configure the low battery notification level, see the "Low Battery Notification Level" policy setting. The notification will only be shown if the "Low Battery Notification Action" policy setting is configured to "No Action". If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, users can control this setting.
