Electricity has to pass through the filament which, when it gets hot enough from resistance to the current, begins to glow and give off light.

Why did the electric light bulb get invented?

WHAT IS THE LOWEST VOLTAGE NEED TO LIGHT A LIGHT BULB?
A light bulb is manufactured to operate on a specific voltage. The voltage can be a low as needed and the manufacturer will compute the size of the filament that is needed for a specific wattage. If you are referring to a threshold voltage then that is another question that needs to be asked.
How does Thomas Alva Edison's light bulb work?
Michael Faraday's made a light bulb with a platinum wire, he put it in a small glass globe, and attached it to a low voltage source. it glowed and produced light. Platinum is expensive. It only worked at low voltage. Others made lightbulbs. Edison decided a light bulb was a good idea but it needed to be made inexpensively. It needed to work at a higher voltage. The source of the electricity needed to be different from the place where the light bulb would be used. He looked for a material that could be made inexpensively and could last. It needed to be able to take higher voltage. He heated some thread until it turned to carbon. Then he made a vacuum inside a light bulb. He put the thread inside the bulb. It worked. He created a light bulb. It could be made inexpensively. It could work at a fairly high voltage.
