The USB-C port is data only  and the G5 dock requires Alt-DP and Power Delivery capability on the USB-C port to work fully. Your USB-C ports have neither. You cannot charge your laptop through a USB-C port from a dock or a USB-C adapter. So if you want a dock that can provide dual monitors, for example, you need a dock that has DisplayLink technology that turns an ordinary USB connection into video. You will need to use the provided AC adapter even with such a dock. Post back with any more questions.
