There is a section in the tech specs called "Expansion" (I was looking for "Ports" )
"Expansion 1× USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, 2× USB 2.0 Type-A, MicroSD Card Reader"
which contains a mention of a single USC type C port.
No mention of power delivery or DisplayPort? IMHO makes no sense to buy a laptop in 2020 without those.

Only one which is kinda disappointing for a modern laptop.

It is listed right on the product page: 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C.
If you are asking if it has the ability to be charged through USB C, then I believe the answer is no.
This is absolutely absurd nowadays.
My friend have a reasonably old Thinkpad laptop, she ran out of battery during a very important meeting, and I was able to help her by plugging my powerbank

Same. I haven’t bought a charger to/from work in years. I just have a very old spare at home that I’ve been using for my work laptops, and leave the original at the office.
I also seldom carry a charger, since most places I go have a USBC charger for me anyway.
If you need it, then you probably should consider https://puri.sm/products/librem-14
