Can someone please explain to me why this part does not have a normal power cable but only a cable with a USB connection? Where am I supposed to get the power from if there is no device with a USB port nearby where I can plug it in?

Because USB also supplies power? Because, for example, you could also operate the luminaire far away from any power socket using a power bank? etc
Digitec's specifications clearly state "Power supply: Power supply via USB".

If there is a power socket, you can also plug a USB power supply into it, so powering the lamp is not a problem. So I don't really understand the problem. https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/producttype/usb-ladegeraet-463?pdo=1221-15988%3A304313%7C1221-9473%3A584333&tagIds=82

Answer

With a USB power supply? There are plenty of them in every household these days. They have been supplied with every smartphone and tablet for years. And otherwise you have to buy one for a few francs.
