So this just seems to be matter or missing PK privileges, in this case using concolekit is the better alternative. The default upower policies [1], do grant everyone who is locally logged in, the privilege to suspend or hibernate. What you (the wiki) is doing, is overriding those default policies. As said, I would suggest using consolekit instead, but if you are going the way of overriding the policy with a static group membership, use (the exisiting) group powerdev instead.
