The 66-year-old suspect was arrested in the Dunmurry area under the Terrorism Act on Tuesday.
He faces charges including attempted murder, possessing explosives with intent to endanger life or cause serious injury to property, causing an explosion likely to endanger life or cause serious injury to property, possession of articles for use in terrorism and hijacking.
It comes after a delivery vehicle was hijacked in the Twinbrook area of west Belfast on Saturday.
A gas cylinder device was placed inside the car and the driver was ordered to take it to Dunmurry police station near Belfast.
The vehicle exploded outside the station as residents were being evacuated, including two babies.
Nobody was injured.
The man who has been charged is expected to appear before Lisburn Magistrates' Court on Saturday.
As is usual procedure, all charges will be reviewed by the Public Prosecution Service.

The Irish News newspaper quoted dissident republican group the New IRA on Tuesday as claiming responsibility for the attack.
The New IRA is among a number of active groups opposed to a 1998 peace deal.
The Dunmurry incident took place weeks after an attempted car bomb attack on Lurgan police station.
On Monday, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) released footage of the moment the Dunmurry car bomb exploded, after political leaders and the chief constable Jon Boutcher jointly condemned the "reckless" attack.
The footage shows a person walking along a path before a large flash of light erupts ahead.
James Broadnax, 37, was pronounced dead on Thursday after a dose of lethal injection in Huntsville, around 70 miles north of Houston, Texas.
Broadnax had said prosecutors misused rap lyrics he wrote to secure his death sentence.
His emotional British wife, named in various reports as Tiana Krasniqi, screamed "I love you" before Broadnax stopped breathing.
During the execution, she leaned up to the death chamber window with arms spread and had to be helped out of the prison.
Earlier in the day, the US Supreme Court had denied a request by Broadnax's attorneys to stop his execution.
Broadnax was convicted for the fatal 2008 shootings of two men outside a Dallas music studio.
Prosecutors said he and his cousin, Demarius Cummings, had shot and robbed Stephen Swan and Matthew Butler in the parking lot of Butler's recording studio in Garland. Cummings was sentenced to life without parole.
In his final statement, Broadnax protested his innocence but asked for forgiveness from the victims' relatives, some of whom, including the parents of each of the victims, were present.
He said: "I prayed to God for your forgiveness. Despite what you think about me, I hope to God that prayer was answered.
"But no matter what you think about me, Texas got it wrong. I'm innocent. The facts of my case should speak for itself. Period."
As the lethal dose of the sedative, pentobarbital, began, Broadnax urged his supporters to keep fighting, saying "don't give up". He was stopped in the middle of another sentence by a gasp.
He also shook his head briefly and all movement stopped, before he was pronounced dead 21 minutes later.
Prosecutors said he had confessed to the shooting and told reporters during jailhouse interviews that "I pulled the trigger" and that he had no remorse.
In his final appeals, Broadnax's lawyers focused on two issues: that Cummings had recently confessed to being the shooter and that his constitutional rights were violated because prosecutors eliminated potential jurors from his trial on the basis of race.
In a video recently recorded with a view to stopping the execution, Cummings said from prison: "I'm really gonna tell it like it's supposed to be told, that it was me, that I was the killer. I shot Matthew Bullard, Steve Swan."
In an earlier appeal, Broadnax's attorneys had also argued that prosecutors violated his constitutional rights by using rap lyrics he wrote to portray him as a violent and dangerous person in order to secure a death sentence.
Rappers including Travis Scott and Killer Mike had filed briefs at the Supreme Court in support of Broadnax's appeal.
Theresa Butler, Matthew Butler's mother, had asked that the execution proceed.
She wrote in a post on social media: "This so called confession from cummings is just a stall tactic by Broadnax's desperate defense team. Its all a lie."

Broadnax was the tenth person put to death in the US this year, and the third in Texas, which has historically held more executions than any other state.
According to the Death Penalty Information Centre, there were 24 executions in 2023 and 25 the following year.
Last the year the figure rose to 47.
Claire Freemantle has been charged with two counts of causing death by dangerous driving and seven counts of causing serious injury by dangerous driving after the incident in Wimbledon, southwest London.
The 49-year-old, from Edge Hill, Wimbledon, indicated through lawyers that she will plead not guilty when she appears at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 16 June.
Schoolgirls Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau died in July 2023 when a Land Rover smashed through a fence at The Study Prep school, which was celebrating the last day of the summer term. More than a dozen people were also injured.
The Metropolitan Police said in June 2024 that the driver had suffered an epileptic seizure and would face no criminal charges.
But after concerns were raised by the families of the two young girls, a review of the case was carried out, and the force's Specialist Crime Command decided to reinvestigate the case.
Freemantle was arrested for the second time and released under investigation in January last year.
A statement released by Freemantle's lawyers said there are "serious questions to be answered" over why the decision to charge was reversed.
Mark Jones, criminal defence partner at Payne Hicks Beach LLP, said she would be "tortured for the rest of her life by the dreadful loss and injury" and "remains utterly devastated" by what happened.
He added: "We believe that initial decision by the CPS [Crown Prosecution Service] was the right one in these tragic circumstances and that there are serious questions to be answered about the reasons for its reversal today."

The Met police offered an apology in a statement about their handling of the crash: "We are sorry for how we initially dealt with the incident and for the impact on those affected.
"We must now let both criminal proceedings and the independent investigation run their course.
"However, following a review of the Roads and Transport Policing Command we will be fundamentally resetting how the Met investigates fatal and serious collisions."
Separately, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is currently investigating officers for alleged racism in their handling of the case.
The watchdog previously said it was examining allegations that officers provided "false and misleading information" to the families after they raised concerns about the standard of the investigation.
The IOPC is examining complaints against 11 staff, including four serving officers and one former officer, who are being investigated for gross misconduct.
Nahida Bristy's remains were found on Sunday in a rubbish bag uncovered by a kayaker whose fishing line got caught.
Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said DNA and dental records had identified the remains.
Fellow University of South Florida student, Zamil Limon, was found in another bag on the Howard Frankland Bridge two days before.
Mr Limon's roommate Hisham Abugharbieh, 26, was arrested after a brief standoff and faces two murder charges.
Sheriff Chronister said the suspect appeared unmoved when confronted with the evidence.
A motive is yet to be established but authorities think the pair, who disappeared on 16 April, were killed around the same time and place.
The sheriff said grisly details had been recovered from Abugharbieh's phone, which had recently been erased.
Recent searches included "can a knife penetrate a skull?" and "can a neighbour hear a gunshot?"
Abugharbieh also allegedly bought builders' rubbish bags and disinfectant wipes, while blood was found in the kitchen and bedroom of the flat he shared with Limon.
"This was calculating. That's what makes this so premeditated," the sheriff added.
Mr Chronister said a luminol spray - used to reveal cleaned-up blood stains - also suggested a body had been curled in the foetal position next to Abugharbieh's bed.
Prosecutors also allege Abugharbieh asked ChatGPT about disposing of a body on 13 April, three days before Limon and Bristy were last seen alive.

The US-born suspect - who hasn't yet entered a plea - had dropped out of the university, while Limon was studying geography, environmental science and policy, and Bristy was studying chemical engineering.
A relative said the pair, both 27, were considering getting married.
James Holder, 54, of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, had gone back to the woman's home, went to the toilet and then fell asleep on her bed.
The multi-millionaire fashion boss then woke up and beckoned the woman, who was trying to sleep in the lounge, into her bedroom and raped her.
Holder had denied charges of assault by penetration and rape and said what sexual activity took place between them was consensual.
A jury at Gloucester Crown Court acquitted Holder of assault by penetration but found him guilty of rape.

The court heard the woman was attacked in the early hours of 7 May 2022 after a night out at a bar in Cheltenham.
Holder and a friend had gone back to her home uninvited, and he attacked her after waking from a brief nap on her bed.
Giving evidence, the woman said she was crying and asking the married father-of-two to stop, but he continued.
The ordeal ended when she managed to escape the bedroom, and Holder left her home a short time later.
The woman denied suggestions from Holder's barrister that she had initiated the encounter.
Michelle Heeley KC, defending, said: "This was a drunken sexual encounter that you regret?"
She replied: "Incorrect."
The court heard businessman and philanthropist Holder was "old school and chivalrous" towards women and "adored sex".
He told the jury she had kissed him first and it was "evident what she wanted to happen".
Holder was remanded into custody ahead of sentencing at Bristol Crown Court on 7 May.
