When battery saver is on, Windows Task Scheduler tasks are triggered only if the task is:

Not set to Start the task only if the computer is idle... (task doesn't use IdleSettings)
Not set to run during automatic maintenance (task doesn't use MaintenanceSettings)
Is set to Run only when user is logged on (task LogonType is TASK_LOGON_INTERACTIVE_TOKEN or TASK_LOGON_GROUP)

All other triggers are delayed until battery saver is off. For more information about accessing battery saver status in your application, see SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS. For general information about battery saver, see battery saver (in the hardware component guidelines).
