A couple of years ago we discussed a team walk problem. We found our opponents had an over 80% scoring rate for the hitters that were walked. This was probably over a 10-15 game sample size.
I'd be willing to guess the batter scoring rate on an error is a little lower, but errors can come with additional consequences such as other baserunners moving up and base awards.
To me, errors should happen a much lower rate than walks, so each individual event probably "hurts" more, but it can widely vary.
