Not all USB-C cables. USB-C PD spec supports up to 100W, but only certain cables will support that current.

I believe the goal is to utilize the USB-PD and USB-QC 3.0 (or 4.0?) specs to allow compatible chargers and battery packs to charge the device. No device is going to be able to convert your budget/vending machine battery pack into a 100W monster, but Aukey, Ravkey and Anker all have various...

USB-PD is a negotiated spec - meaning you plug it in, a simple circuit says "hey, I can deliver up to 20V@5A, what would you like", and the device says "I'd love 15V@3A please" Simplified, but you get the idea
