Looks like you found the right place. Inside
/etc/sysconfig/apm-scripts/apmscript we read:
# Finally, run anacron to catch up cron stuff we missed...
# If anacron is installed and we're on AC power or we want
# to run it even in battery mode.
So you have to change a configuration file if you want anacron to run
when you are on battery power. Which I suppose is the usual case for
the suspended system.
