Nobody seems to be talking about the port in the charger itself. Does the regulation also specify USB-C for the other side?

The European Commission has a section in the Q&A about that[1] where they say that the charger side of things will be regulated in the Ecodesign Regulation.

Ecodesign will regulate things like power delivery, which includes charger and PoE efficiency and characteristics.

Great question, I have never noticed that.
