        where execution of the OS is paused,
        and complete power loss might result
        in lost data, and which is fast to
        enter and exit. This corresponds to
        suspend, standby, or freeze states as
        understood by the kernel.

      <varlistentry>
        <term>suspend-then-hibernate</term>

        <listitem>
          <para>A low power state where the system is initially suspended (the state is stored in
          RAM). If the system supports low-battery alarms (ACPI _BTP), then the system will be woken up by
          the ACPI low-battery signal and hibernated (the state is then stored on disk). Also, if not
          interrupted within the timespan specified by <varname>HibernateDelaySec=</varname> or the estimated
          timespan until the system battery charge level goes down to 5%, then the system will be woken up by the
          RTC alarm and hibernated. The estimated timespan is calculated from the change of the battery
          capacity level after the time specified by <varname>SuspendEstimationSec=</varname> or when
          the system is woken up from the suspend.</para>
