You can attach to the 'SystemEvents' class of the built-in Win32 class:

using Microsoft.Win32;

in a WPF window class:

SystemEvents.PowerModeChanged += SystemEvents_PowerModeChanged;
SystemEvents.SessionSwitch += SystemEvents_SessionSwitch;
SystemEvents.SessionEnding += SystemEvents_SessionEnding;
SystemEvents.SessionEnded += SystemEvents_SessionEnded;

private async void SystemEvents_PowerModeChanged(object sender, PowerModeChangedEventArgs e)
{
    await vm.PowerModeChanged(e.Mode);
}

private async void SystemEvents_PowerModeChanged(object sender, PowerModeChangedEventArgs e)
{
    await vm.PowerModeChanged(e.Mode);
}

private async void SystemEvents_SessionSwitch(object sender, SessionSwitchEventArgs e)
{
    await vm.SessionSwitch(e.Reason);
}

private async void SystemEvents_SessionEnding(object sender, SessionEndingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Reason == SessionEndReasons.Logoff)
    {
        await vm.UserLogoff();
    }
}

private async void SystemEvents_SessionEnded(object sender, SessionEndedEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Reason == SessionEndReasons.Logoff)
    {
        await vm.UserLogoff();
    }
}
