(the “Company”)~~ of ~~his~~Operations ~~resignation~~and asFinancial ~~a director of the Company, effective on such date~~Condition. ~~Mr. Mudd’s resignation was not due to any disagreement with the Company or its management regarding any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.~~

AOn ~~copy~~May of16, 2011, China Clean Energy Inc. (the “Company’s”) issued a press release ~~discussing~~announcing ~~the~~its ~~resignation~~earnings offor ~~Mr.~~its ~~Mudd~~first asfiscal ~~well~~quarter asended ~~the resignation~~March of31, ~~Constantine~~2011. ~~Konstans~~A oncopy ~~February~~of ~~28,~~such ~~2011~~press release is ~~attached~~furnished ~~hereto~~ as Exhibit 99.1 ~~and incorporated herein by reference~~.

On May 16, 2011, the Company held a conference call in connection with the Company’s announcement of its earnings for its second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011. A copy of the script for such conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.2.

The information in this Current Report and the accompanying exhibits are being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to this Current Report in such a filing.

Certain non-GAAP measures are set forth in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The management of the Company uses non-GAAP adjusted net earnings to measure the performance of the Company’s business internally by excluding non-recurring items as well as non-cash charges related to the warrants issued in connection with the Company’s 2009 private placement offering. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures allow management to focus on managing business operating performance because these measures reflect the essential operating activities of the Company and provide a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. The Company believes that providing the non-GAAP measures - which management uses internally - to its investors is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measures provide a consistent basis for investors to understand the Company’s financial performance in comparison to historical periods without variation of non-recurring items and non-operating related charges. In addition, it allows investors to better evaluate the Company's performance using the same methodology and information as those used by management. Non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all of the expenses included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment of which charges are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure. The disclosure in Exhibit 99.1 allows investors to reconcile the non-GAAP measures to GAAP.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 16, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing that its board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $1 million of its outstanding shares of common stock between now and May 16, 2012, subject to market and other conditions. Under this plan, the Company can repurchase shares from time to time for cash in open market purchases in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. A copy of such press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.3.

The information in this Current Report and the accompanying exhibits are being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act and are not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to this Current Report in such a filing.
