I think the setting would be anywhere in Bios. If I am wrong please correct me.

can`t say correctly but there should be an option like "Restore on power" with options like ON,OFF and LAST STAGE. That option is on my bios. That may not be found in lappy`s bios.

Change your power options to shut down the laptop when the battery is 3%. That way, I guess, the laptop my power on when the power comes (change the settings accordingly in BIOS - Power settings)

Is the power cut scheduled (i.e, you know the time of cut)? Then, instead of letting the system go to sleep automatically at 3% battery, you can set it to sleep at set time (some time after the start of cut when you estimate the battery may be around 15-20%) and then rewake 5 minutes after power resumes...
